Proposal

I would like to monitor three SRB type stars and one Mira star in the Cassiopeia constellation.
I am unable lately to observe variable stars lately due to the LED lights that have been installed throughout our city.
I have been a member of AAVSO for some decades and I would to continue contributing data to AAVSO.
So the light polution has brought my backyard astronomy activities to a standstill and the only recourse I have is toapply for time on your remote telescope system which I have used before.
I would suggest a cadence of about 10 days and B, V, R, and I filters.
Below are the aforementioned targets that I found by using the AAVSO Observation Planner, AAVSO Charts and VStar.
Images to be sent to my VPhot account. (DDJ)
All coordinates are in J2000

Respectfully
