PDS 110 magnitude range

In AAVSO Alert Notice 584 I omitted the magnitude range of PDS 110. According to VSX, its range is V = 10.40-10.75. The webpage for the notice has been edited to include the range. My apologies, and many thanks to Arne Henden for letting me know of the omission.

Good observing,

Elizabeth

Best Sloan Filters for PDS110?

Hello

I plan to follow PDS110.  I currently have BVI and g' filters.  What Sloan Filter would be best to add to this sequence for this campaign?  u' or r'.

What will the cadence requested during the eclipse?
