[vsnet-alert 18320] LY UMa not fading?

[Patrick Schmeer]

LY UMa (CW 1045+525, 1RXS J104819.1+521837, "UMa5")

The previous report can probably be ignored as there
seems to be something wrong with the most recent CRTS
data of LY UMa (and other objects, too - e.g. CY UMa
and "UMa2"= PG 1002+506). In the CRTS images of
LY UMa for 21 February 2015 no fading is visible.

My previous report (vsnet-alert 18317):

LY UMa (CW 1045+525, 1RXS J104819.1+521837, "UMa5")

According to the Catalina Real-time Transient Survey (CRTS;
Drake et al. 2009, ApJ, 696, 870) this nova-like CV is fading
(fainter than ever before?).
