[vsnet-alert 2863] Re: Possible SN in NGC 3294

[Denis Buczynski <denis@cb978iau.demon.co.uk>]

Dear Dr Kato, In response to the report of a possible Supernovae in
NGC3294 I obtained a ccd image tonight at 1999 April 12.90865 using the
33cm F/3 automatic telescope at Conder Brow Observatory and found NO NEW
OBJECT at the reported magnitude (12-13) at either of the two quoted
positions.
Best wishes
Denis.
