MASTER OT J204806.68+135423.3 discovery  - very bright (14.9m) high amplitude
(>7.1m) OT

MASTER-IAC auto-detection system ( <A HREF="http://www.hindawi.com/journals/aa/2010/349171/"
>Lipunov
et al., "MASTER Global Robotic Net", Advances in Astronomy, 2010, 30L</A>
)  
discovered OT source at (RA, Dec) = 20h 48m 06.68s +13d 54m 23.3s on 2016-07-24.16661
UT.

The OT unfiltered magnitude is 
14.9m
(limit 18.5m). 

The OT is seen in 3 images. There is no minor planet at this place. We
have reference image without OT on 2015-09-05.87973 UT with unfiltered
magnitude limit 20.4m.

There is no OT on MASTER images at -Amur,-Tunka,-Kislovodsk database since
2009-08-28 18:42:03UT.

There is no OT in POSS images (22m upper limit) and in VIZIER database
inside 4".  
It means the amplitude of current outburst is more then 7.1m

Spectral observations are required.
