Nova Aql 2009 [R.A. = 19h14m10s, Decl. = +15o16'.6 (2000.0)]: Observation
  D=V;E+3 (class 2). Comparison stars (NAS.VSS) were D = TYC 1599-3577
  (mag. 10.05, ref. ASAS-3) and E = TYC 1599-3909 (V = 10.39, ASAS-3).
KT Eri = Nova Eri 2009: Observation F-5;H+5 (class 1). Comparison stars
  were F = HD 30487 (mag. V = 8.85, TYC2 w/Bessell) and H = HD 30512
  (V = 9.85, TYC2 w/Bessell).
V496 Sct = Nova Sct 2009: Observation E-1;F+5 (class 2). This was a quite
  challenging observation due to low altitude and a bright sky background;
  the nova was nevertheless seen with certainty. Comparison stars were
  E = HD 173202 (V = 8.38, GCPD) and F = HD 173220 (V = 8.97, GCPD).
