     Further to IAUC 8598, T. Puckett and M. Peoples report the
an outburst of this object (cf. IAUC 7214) at mag 17.1 on unfiltered
CCD frames taken with the 0.60-m reflector on Sept. 12.12 UT in the
course of the Puckett Observatory Supernova Search.  The variable is
located at R.A. = 18h35m56s.33, Decl. = +22o26'40".1 (equinox 2000.0),
which is near UGC 11289.  Images by Puckett confirmed the object
brightening to mag 16.1 on CCD frames taken on Sept. 13.13.  Nothing
is visible at this location on images taken by Puckett on Sept. 9.16
(limiting mag 20.1).
