Hitoshi:
Here are my observations to date on SN1993J. To me, SN1993J has
``stabilized'' at a magnitude between the magnitude 10.7 comparison star and
either component of the magnitude 10.4/10.5 double star. Previously unreported
observations are marked with asterisk(*).

The 8"/f3.5 in combination with the 10.5 millimeter TeleVue Plossl & the
paracorr coma corrector yields 79 power.
