This is very interesting from a catalogue standpoint, since it
is clear that the GCVS on-line page and elsewhere have the position
for the bright field star, not the CV, which is some 80" distant.
It looks as though the correct coordinates are:
RA (J2000) Dec source
14 44 01.24 +22 00 55.3 USNO-1.0
14 44 01.24 +22 00 54.6 GSC-2.3
14 44 01.21 +22 00 54.8 SDSS DR6
...with the Sloan position certainly the preferred one. The colors
in the Sloan catalogue are very distinctive.
