Here is the link to TOCP page where this object was first reported:
http://www.cbat.eps.harvard.edu/unconf/followups/J21040470+4631129.html

I have prepared the 10'x10' DSS color-combined finder chart with three
comparison stars positioned very close to the variable (2-3 arcmin
East of it), with very suitable colors and covering the desirable
range of magnitudes:

TYC 3588-7713-1 B=8.69 V=8.61
TYC 3588-9299-1 B=9.33 V=9.33
TYC 3588-8651-1 B=10.71 V=10.74

The original image by Nishimura-san posted at CBAT TOCP has 1.6x1.1
degree FOV. I have labeled two brightest stars on it for the
convenience of visual observers:

The variable on the image appears to me brighter than V=8.6 comparison
star. Is the 9.2m magnitude underestimated, or is it just JPEG
conversion playing tricks?
