Hitoshi:
        Here are my observations to date on SN1993J.  The date marked with an 
asterisk (*) is the previously unreported estimate.  By the way, I was not able
to determine whether SN1993J had any color during the observation on 5/28; 
however, the limiting magnitude was only about 13.2--13.5.

The 8"/f3.5 in combination with the 10.5 millimeter TeleVue Plossl & the 
paracorr coma corrector yields 79 power.  Observations made from Yorktown,
Battlefield, Virginia, USA on 4/2, 4/4, 4/8, 4/13, 4/14, 4/18, 4/19, 4/28, 
4/29, 4/30, 5/8, 5/11 & 5/28.

The 12.5"f/6 in combination with the 24 millimeter Konig yields 76 power, 
in combination with the 13 millimeter TeleVue Plossl yields 141 power.
Observation made from Ellicott City, Maryland, USA on 4/24 & 5/23.
