V1251 CYG [UGSU, 12.5p - <15p]
==============================

Tonny Vanmunster, CBA Belgium Observatory and Timo Kinnunen, Finland
independently report a faint rebrightening of V1251 Cyg, an object 
that recently went into a superoutburst [CVC 151]. Observations :

1997 Sep 23.79  UT, [15.7  (T. Kinnunen, 0.44-m refl., visual);
     Sep 23.931 UT, [15.3  (G. Poyner, 0.40-m refl., visual);
     Sep 24.240 UT, [14.8  (G. Hanson, 0.46-m refl., visual);
     Sep 24.803 UT,  15.8  (T. Vanmunster, 0.25-m SCT, unfilt. CCD);
     Sep 24.833 UT,  15.5  (T. Kinnunen, 0.44-m refl., visual);


Unfortunately, the V1251 Cyg image turned out to be our last CCD 
image acquired at CBA Belgium Observatory for the moment. Due to an 
electronic problem, the telescope itself is currently out of use, 
but we hope to be operational again soon.
