GSC 1040-399 + new variable

[Michael Koppelman <lolife@bitstream.net>]

I got some data on this last night and it seems I caught a maximum:

The 1-sigma of the comp star magnitudes was 0.004.


In the process one of my (would be) comp stars turned up variable. I 
don't know if this is a noted TASS star or not, but we should have some 
data. The amplitude is very small and the period very short so I don't 
know what it is. See:

It does not appear to be a known variable.

This is a pretty nice field if we can watch both of these. They are 
right near the same magnitude as well.

Cheers,
