V630 Cyg [UGSU:, 13.4p - 17.2p]
===============================

This UG-type cataclysmic variable, which recently has been added to
the CVAP, is undergoing an outburst, as indicated by the observations
of Tonny Vanmunster, Landen, Belgium and Eric Broens, Mol, Belgium :

1995 Oct 19.945 UT, [15.2  (E. Broens, 0.35-m refl., seq: AAVSO);
     Oct 20.627 UT, [13.4  (M. Moriyama, 0.33-m refl.);
     Oct 20.888 UT, [14.1  (G. Poyner, 0.40-m refl.);
     Oct 20.945 UT, [15.2  (E. Broens);
     Oct 21.763 UT,  14.2  (T. Vanmunster, 0.35-m refl., seq: AAVSO);
     Oct 21.774 UT,  14.3  (E. Broens); 

Since the classification of V630 Cyg as an SU UMa-type dwarf nova is
still unsure, it is of great importance to monitor the present outburst
closely. If it turns out to be a superoutburst, this could be an ideal
opportunity to confirm the suspected classification.

According to our data in the "Outburst Activity Database", V630 Cyg
was last observed in outburst on August 5, 1995 by Dave York (NM) and
reached a maximum magnitude of 15.1 (AAVSO Circ. 299).


V1060 Cyg [UGSS, 13.5p - 18p]
=============================

This CVAP object is undergoing a very bright outburst, as reported by
M. Moriyama, Sasebo, Nagasaki, Japan. His observations are presented
below, together with some confirmative ones.

1995 Oct 20.604 UT,  13.2  (M. Moriyama, 0.33-m refl.);
     Oct 20.648 UT,  13.2  (M. Moriyama);
     Oct 20.882 UT, [14.7  (G. Poyner, 0.40-m refl.);
     Oct 21.585 UT,  13.2  (M. Moriyama);
     Oct 21.797 UT,  13.1  (E. Broens, 0.35-m refl., seq: Kato);
     Oct 21.822 UT,  13.0  (T. Vanmunster, 0.35-m refl., seq: KATO);

The previous outburst of V1060 Cyg was reported by Tonny Vanmunster on
August 21, 1995 (CVC 53), when the object reached a maximum brightness
of mag. 14.9 (CVC 55).
