Taichi: I made a 4 hour V band run on AM Her last night [JD2452870]. The average V magnitude during the run was 14.11. This is a slightly higher magnitude than the average shown on the VSNET posting for the last several months. This star may indeed be going into its low state. Further observations are encouraged. I have posted the data in graphic form at: http://vsnet.starkey.ws/FTP%20Page/JD2452870%20AM%20Her.jpg ============================================== The price of freedom is constant vigilance.

This may be a beginning of a new low state. >Please watch! >Regards, >Taichi Kato
