[vsnet-alert 8990] BF Cyg fading? fluctuating?

[Taichi Kato]

  Yutaka Maeda reports that BF Cyg has faded rapidly from the
recent outburst maximum (he reports mag 10.9 on Aug. 24).
Discrepancies, however, seem to exist between observers.
Further observations, as well as CCD photometry, are encouraged
to check the possibility of short-term variation.
