Proposal

I am collecting data on W Gem for a research project and would need 2-3 photos spread throughout the day for about 15 days. Ideally RGB Filters would be great, but just green filtered images should work just as well. W Gem is a DCEP variable star with a magnitude ranging from 6.54-7.38. This magnitude makes slooh observations saturated so AAVSOnet images would provide the data needed.

The TAC approves this project and requests that observations be made in BVRI filters (or whatever the telescopes have in similar passbands). Cadence should be about 2 hours between observations.

Hi, I was wondering when the data collection would be done. I forgot to mention that I need the data as soon as possible and, at the latest, before the end of April. Thanks so much

I see that it has been allocated, so I'll defer to Ken or George on the timing.
