[vsnet-obs 6098] southern observations




G'day all,

Some of my observations for Jun 25 UT.   Air temperature about zero
degrees, a 70km/h breeze, and partly cloudy.  Observations ended when
the telescope mirrors iced over!

UW Cen          14:56    <11.6
V854 Cen        15:00      7.8
BI Cru          14:51     10.9
BP Cru          14:52     11.4  - fainter than usual
RY Sgr          15:27      6.7

Before clouds intervened, I also managed the following estimates on
3 field stars near Nova Sco:
