New cataclysmic variable in Camelopardalis DDE 22 (USNO-B1.0
1597-0071405, 2MASS 04304278+6944281, GALEX J043042.9+694428) appears
to be going into outburst. Observations by Stas Korotkiy and Vladimir
Gerke with TAU station of Ka-Dar observatory have shown it brightened
by ~2 mags in last 2 nights.
YYYYMMDD(UT) mag observer
20110825.935 190C TAU station
20110827.889 201C TAU station
20110828.908 195C TAU station
20110829.745 184C TAU station

I request the confirmation of outburst, and should it be confirmed -
time-resolved photometry (if someone can do time series for an object
that faint). The maximum brighthness of star is perhaps 15.5-15.9.
Star has been added to AAVSO VSX as DDE 22 with AUID 000-BKD-609.

I was using 147 as comparison star and 166 as check star.
This would be the first observed outburst of this star since its
discovery a month ago. See arxiv:1108.5122 and
