[vsnet-newvar 1824] GSC 6248:1255 Variability



The star GSC 6248:1255 (in the field of V2540 Oph) appears to be variable.  I used GSC 6248:1364 (V=11.05, Rc=10.66) and SAO 160704 (V=9.97, Rc=9.72) as comparison stars.  For reference, the Tycho 2 position (J2000) is 17 37 22.694 -16 21 11.09 and photometry Bt = 13.160 and Vt = 11.422.  This is a red star (M type).  I did not find the star listed in the GCVS.  My CCD measurements are:

20020213.584  11.76V  WJD
20020819.115  11.35V  WJD
20020819.101  9.27Rc  WJD
20020907.091  11.21V  WJD

Assume an error of +/- 0.1 magnitude to account for lack of color correction.
