| Proposal | I would like to observe GrAGVar013 and confirm its variability with the entry on the VSX (there was only one source for the period and I would like to contribute to confirming the period). This observation will be used for both research and educational uses. I am requesting exposures of 3 seconds each Please run around 5 images for the B filter, and as many as possible for the V filter. It would be of great help if the images could be collected before May 12, thanks. |

You have said nothing about its known period. One small set of images are not going to be useful for a period analysis!

Its known period is 71.7 minutes (0.04979). I want to use small amounts of data to piece together to fold a period. I do not need much data but having data over many different nights would be of much help, thanks!
Ideal end date changed to May 23.

The amplitude of this object is 3 millimag, a tough target to do from the ground. What makes this target worthy of such hard work?

The TAC has decided that a 3 mmag amplitude is too small to achieve with AAVSOnet and thus declines the proposal.
