Stars #1 and #2 are saturated and their colours and magnitudes are approximate. Star#1 has a reliable Tycho-2 magnitude of V=10.26+/-0.04. 2. There is an RASNZ chart, number 916, available for this variable, with a lettered sequence. 3. VY Scl appears to fluctuate between magnitudes V=12.7 and V=13.1 at maximum. At minimum this variable fades to about V=18.5. Bruce Sumner 24 January 2001
