Greetings,

What are the coordinates for this star? Is it in an obscured region? As soon
as I saw Doug's post I considered interstellar reddening - but it would have
to be dramatically reddened to get the B-V, U-B combination - about a
magnitude in both colours. Even objects in the eta Carinae region are only
reddened by about half a magnitude. Then there would be impossibly large R
and I excesses for such a blue object. So maybe Doug hasn't considered
interstellar reddening but his answer fits the colours.

Regards,
Stan

Stan:
My plan is to de-redden the spectral type determination for MisV1147 (RA=22 54 03.78 Dec=+58 54 02.1).  It has been a while since I performed that calculation so I am having to dig out my old references.  If you or anyone else has a good reference available on ADS please post it to the list.

Thanks,
Doug
