SDSSJ170213.26+322954.1 20051001.113 139CR Scp
Instrument: University of Iowa, Rigel Telescope (0.37-m Cassegrain)
Sequence: USNO-A2.0 catalogue (R magnitudes)
 
Tonny Vanmunster has just confirmed the outburst on an unfiltered
CCD image as follows: 2005 Oct. 3.874 UT, mag 14.2

SDSS J170213.26+322954.1 is a high-inclination CV that shows
deep (1.5 mag) eclipses with a period of 2.5 hours (P. Szkody
et al., Cataclysmic Variables from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey.
III. The Third Year).
 
Time-resolved photometry during the current outburst is very
urgently required.
 
Regards,
Patrick
