Dear SN watchers,

In [vsnet-obs 42051] (Oct. 27):

># NGC 2559, the host galaxy of SN 2002hc (the reported position is
># questionable.  It was almost identical with the NED position of the
># host galaxy.  The reported offset is 1"E, 7"S of the nucleus), is a
># possibly colliding pair of galaxies (SB(s)bc pec:), having two
># central bars and complex arms.  

># MCG -01-23-8, the host galaxy of SN 2002hd (the position is
># questionable as same as SN 2002hc.  The reported offset is 19".5W,
># 21".5S.), is a almost lenticular (SA0^0^:) galaxy.  

  W. Li provide precise positions (J2000.0) for these SNe (IAUC 8003).

SN 2002hc:  8:17:06.15, -27:27:27.8
SN 2002hd:  8:54:03.39,  -7:11:21.5
