It was detected by the PIXY system as one of the candidates of new
variable stars from images taken by KenIchi Kadota, Ageo City,
Saitama, Japan, then confirmed by Seiichi Yoshida.

The magnitude are measured automatically by the PIXY system. Image
observers' names are noted after "Mis", except for ones taken by
KenIchi Kadota.

NSV 24062 is 1.7 arcmin from NSV 24062. No star brighter than 14.4 mag 
was detected at the cataloged position of NSV 24062. However, the
variability of USNO-A2.0 0600.29859229, R.A. 17h59m39s.613, Decl. 
-25o13'30".30, was detected, between 10.8 - 12.4 mag. Therefore, 
USNO-A2.0 0600.29859229 is NSV 24062, and MisV0864 is thus a new
variable star.
