Linnolt (Hawaii, United States) at a visual magnitude of 12.8 on March 30.2708 (JD 24556450.7708).  This star last exhibited a bright outburst in late November 1948 (Brown et al., 2010, JAAVSO 38, 176), and is a known X-ray source (Bedient 2004, priv. comm.).  A smaller outburst occurred on 2011 March 9-10, when it briefly reached magnitude ~14.5 (Linnolt: 14.5 on JD 2455629.7618; M. Simsonsen, Michigan, United States: V=14.55 on JD 2455630.6615; Linnolt: 14.55 on JD 2455630.7354).
