H. Yamaoka, Kyushu University, reports that the variable appears at mag about 15 (near the limiting magnitude) on a CCD survey image taken by K. Itagaki (Yamagata, Japan) on May 1.71 UT with a 0.21-m telescope, which suggests that the star was then at a quiesient phase; Itagaki provides position end figures 06s.66, 19'57".1 and mag about 8.8 from an image taken on May 8.657 UT with his 0.60-m telescope, indicating that the outbursting object is a southern component of a double star GSC 2197:866 (cf. CBET 2273).
