Hi all,
The compstars@aavso.org email address is bouncing. I'm trying to request a sequence and don't know how to do it other than that. Is this a temporary problem or have I miissed something I'm supposed to do?
Cheers
Jonathan
Hi Jonathan
I just sent an email and it seems to be working now :-)

Not for me. I've just tried again for the third time, got this back:

Subject: AO Aqr
Hi comp stars team,
I was after a sequence for AO Aqr - 22:11:31.90 & Decl.: -22:47:16.51 It;s an EW binary, with V Mag 11.0-11.6. I was hoping for a BVRI sequence if possible, with a 60' FOV.
Thanks!

This Target, AO Aqr, now has a workable sequence.
Good Observing,

I just tried as well and have the same problem with the email being rejected.
I wanted to make a request for a sequence for V425 Vel
10:16:20.60 -55:35:51.0
Mag range aprox V= 8 to 9
Be star
Chart scale E
I use a CCD and only really need B and V. The purpose of the measurements is to flux calibrate simultaneous spectra taken of this star that seems to be changing its spectra on a short time scale.
Thanks
