Dear colleagues, I researched the MisV1147 = HBHA 65-53 on DSS images. Here is the gallery of 4 MisV1147 images on DSS, 1 on DSS 1 and 3 on DSS 2. http://vsnet.aerith.net/tmp/MisV1147-DSS-gallery-mark.gif MisV1147 looks at similar brightness on all images, so I am sure it is not a red variable. Here is the list of the magnitude measured with the PIXY System 2 from the DSS images.
