Proposal

Need three (to stack) 200 to 300 second V band images of cepheids ASASSN-V J061254.32-734356.1
and ASASSN-V J050643.36-725021.7
Would like to have SNR > 100
Suggest FSM-OC61
Once I have images, I will determine suitability and request comps.

So, this is a test to see if a full project is warranted?

Yes, it is a quick look at images.
If decent photometry cannot be done for whatever reason, it will go no further.
These are DCEPs, so if photometry is possible, they would go on the que so that good light curve could be constructed.
Given the vague nature of telescope up time, scheduling and weather, it would be 2-3 years of no priority data collection to produce a workable light curve.
