HS1340+1524 is in outburst.
 
Jly 07.043   16.97C
    11.025   14.17C
 
Bradford Robotic Telescope
 
 
Only the second time I've recorded this object in outburst.
The first and only other time was a short outburst to 15.5
visual on 2007 March 21.086.
 
The HQS CV page
http://deneb.astro.warwick.ac.uk/phsdaj/HQS_Public/HQS_Public.html
notes that it's a short period dwarf nova with rare and short lasting 
outbursts (~2d).  No superoutbursts have been detected so far.  Worthy of
time series?  Not well placed for a long run from the UK though.
 
 
regards,
Gary
