Abstract
R. Passuello and S. Saccavino, Associazione Friulana di Astronomia e Meteorologia (AFAM), Udine; and U. Munari, Asiago Astrophysical Observatory, report their photometry of this symbiotic star, obtained with the AFAM 0.45-m telescope on Aug. 26.9 UT: V = 12.22, B-V = +0.56, U-B = -0.74 (+/- 0.05 mag in all colors). Comparison with archival data collected on 1990 June 23, when the star was at V = 13.13, B-V = +1.26, U-B = -0.48 (Munari et al. 1992, A.Ap. Suppl. 93, 383), suggests that this star is currently undergoing an unexpected bright phase.
