[vsnet-chat 1694] CG CMa

[aah@nofs.navy.mil]

Now that the CV has faded, I've been able to get photometry
of both CG CMa and its close companion.  The companion is
located at
      07:04:05.04  -23:45:34.6  J2000
and has magnitudes and colors of
       V     B-V    verr   bverr
     16.447  0.516  0.012  0.014

The variable is located at
     07:04:05.23  -23:45:34.2  J2000
(or about 2.9arcsec east of the companion), and has magnitudes
and colors of:

  HJD         V     B-V    verr   bverr
51247.6627  16.115  0.018  0.009  0.017
51251.7134  16.543  0.034  0.013  0.011

Note that the variable is still fading and I don't know its
quiescent magnitude.

I hope these numbers will help observers who are reporting
the combined light of the pair to separate out the variable.
