V1316 Cyg [UGSU:, 14.5p - <17.5p]
=================================

This object was very recently observed in outburst (Apr. 27, 1996)
[CVC 92], after which it faded below mag. 14.8 [CVC 94]. It is now
again reported in outburst by Tonny Vanmunster, Landen, Belgium.
He detected the outburst on a CCD image, obtained at the CBA Belgium,
as follows :

1996 May  19.095 UT,  14.1  (T. Vanmunster, 0.25-m f/6.3 SCT, unfilt.
                             CCD image, comp. star 13.7 W of variable);


Following the outburst announcement in CVC 92, Taichi Kato, Ouda
Station, Kyoto University, Japan suggested that this variable very
likely undergoes more frequent outbursts than suggested by the
currently available observations. The present outburst report
very much seems to support that suggestion.

Below we present an overview of all observations of this object,
registered since the April 1996 outburst :
