V482 CYGNI

Gary Poyner,, BAAVSS:

There is a suggestion that the RCB star V482 Cygni may be fading.  The star
has been pretty much inactive since June 1996 when it faded to magnitude
13.0 and recovered to maximum brightness 12 months later (a deeper fade to
magnitude 15.0 occurred in 1990).

Since then there have been small amplitude variations of 0.5 mag either side
of magnitude 11.0.   Latest magnitude in the AAVSO database is 11.9mv.

Charts are available from both BAAVSS and AAVSO.

Further observations are encouraged.
