[vsnet-campaign-v4641sgr 132] Null observation on V4641 Sgr

["Tom Richards" <tom@woodridgeobsy.org>]

G'day all.

I did a time-series on V4641 Sgr at 20s time resolution on 2002-07-12 UT
from 09:49:43 to 16:29:23, with a gap from 13:53:12 to 14:07:24. Total of
1201 frames.

Nothing was observed that exceeded the standard error of the observations,
which was 0.06 mag. More details below. I can forward the rather massive
data file if requested.
