SN2003B  20030105.5  150:  REv

# SN 2003B (offset from NGC 1097 (large barred-spiral) = 90"W, 175"N,
# offset from NGC 1097A (small elliptical) = 40" due ease) was
# discovered visually by R. Evans.  It was revealed to be a type II SN
# a few weeks after explosion on Jan 6 UT.   The precise position is
# not reported, so the asrometry is needed.  NGC 1097 had produced SNe
# 1992bd and 1999eu.  These two were also SNe II, and the latter is
# peculiarly dim one.
