This is LMC V1614 in the GCVS volume 5; which is catalogued as an SR,
mag 16.0-17.2p, period 304.0 days.

   >SMC sources

This one appears to be missing from the GCVS vol 5; but Morel's "Visual
Atlas of the Small Magellanic Cloud" shows this object, and comparisons
down to 14th magnitude.  A spectral class of O9III-V is quoted.

   >Galactic sources

   >GQ Mus          11 52 02.5  -67 12 24  V=7-21  N

This is "Nova Muscae 1983" on VSS RASNZ chart 742.  The 1950 position
given on this chart precesses to 11 52 02.3  -67 12 22.8 (2000).  The
numerical comparison stars are all brighter than mag 11, but the
lettered comparison stars extend beyond the limit of the GSC.

   >RR Tel          20 04 18.5  -55 43 34  V=7-14  Sy

RR Tel appears on VSS RASNZ charts 209 and 210.  The comparison star
"89" (PPM 774336) near RR Tel on chart 210 should not be used.  The true
magnitude is about 10.5 and it is suspected to be variable.


   >V1974 Cyg       20 30 31.2  -52 37 53  V=4.5-21 N
Shouldn't that Dec read "+52 37 53" ?
