Remarks

1 Otero, Sebastian Alberto VSP Note: 14.9 mag. star 1.5" to the E and 18.2 mag. star 5" to the SSE.
2 Otero, Sebastian Alberto Amplitude seems too low. Wrong ID?
3 Otero, Sebastian Alberto Given the light curve evolution and its location towards the LMC, it might be a classical nova event in that galaxy (ATel #7313).
