Just had a quick look using the Lowell 53cm photometric telescope in
its photometer previewer eyepiece. I couldn't see anything definite within
the galaxy besides the conspicuous stellar (Seyfert) nucleus. My limit was
fairly bright, Tsvetkov's star 9 (V=14.7) on the south-southeast side of
the galaxy being a threshold object. So within the galaxy the limit would
certainly be brighter, and I think quite a bit brighter than the reported
magnitude. Awaiting CCD confirmation....
