Dear VSNET!
Attached is my third night of the Catalina transient. It was a long
run (10.5 hours) covering five eclipses. The overall light curve is
pretty much the same as previous nights. The star still varies between
mag 15 and mag 16 and shows deep and sharp 8 minute long eclipses. I
observed the first eclipse with 10 s exposures and with faster
download (small subframe, minimal processing) but it was not fast
enough for seeing any gradual fading/brightening. The dataset of the
first eclipse is not included on the file, I will submit it
separately.
