I missed this one... On April 28.260 UT, I photographed it clearly with an 85mm f/2.0 lens with orange filter and hypersensitized Kodak Technical Pan film. Its magnitude was 9.8. I will begin CCD photometry of it beginning tonight (~April 30.3) and soon will start checking archives dating back to 1984. Clear skies to everyone! William Liller=
