[vsnet-be 17] V862 Outburst Refs
The original Bakos V862 Sco = HD 160202 ref. appears to be in the
following book:
1967 BAKOS NON PERIODIC PHENOMENA VARIABLE STARS ED DETRE REIDEL 1967
unfortunately no page number is given.
Another reference [besides the S&T one from an earlier post by Taichi
Kato] for comments on this star by G A Bakos is:
Commumications of the Konkoly Observatory, No. 65 (Vol. VI, 1), p.
159-160 (1969)
Meanwhile, an abstract search using Bakos as author gives this for HD
160202 in 1985 [but unfortunately no archived article]:

The note of rapid flaring further biases me towards a compact companion,
though Bakos evidently sees it as some kind of flare star.
