The new object is located at R.A. = 13h33m06s.33, Decl. = +33o08'59".0 (equinox 2000.0), which is approximately 3".3 west and 7".3 south of the center of MCG +06-30-34. Boles measures end figures 06s.35, 58".4 from a confirming image acquired by W. Li (University of California at Berkeley) on Feb. 14.487.
