So it was just a hiccup.  I was hoping it was finally going to _do_ something
for a change!

LR Sco normally shines at about 10.1-10.6v according to my database.  I have
recorded only one minor fade since 1992.   This was seen on 1995 Aug 19 (11.2)
and Aug 23 (11.1).

Evidently this star is one of the wait-for-ages-between-fades RCBs; rather than
like the (usually) more active V854 Cen.




cheers,
Fraser Farrell
