The sequence stars are:
Comparison     GSC             Adopted Value    Source
A              3463.00058          11.24        Corwin
B              3463.00348          11.8         Hurst
C              3463.00290          12.6         Hurst
D              omission            13.44        Corwin
E              3463.00591          13.72        Corwin
F              3463.00465          14.5         Hurst
G              3463.00588          15.09        Corwin
Although the Corwin values are reliable V values those from
the Editor are merely interim values to fill gaps in the
otherwise difficult sequence. They are eye-estimates of diameter
based on a sequence of photographs in the collection of the
UK Nova/Supernova Patrol.

Taichi Kato, Japan has e-mailed details of a further independent
discovery by Y.Fujita, Kuma-Kogen Observatory, Ehime, Japan.
This was made on 1994 April 2.62UT using the 0.60-m f6 Ritchey-
Chretien + CCD (unfiltered) when the estimated magnitude of the
supernova was approximately 14.
