Proposal

The OJ 287 species is a BL Lacertae, and I have been interested in its fascinating evolution for years. Unfortunately, from my usual conservation area (Bortle 9), I cannot obtain adequate signal-to-noise ratios (SNR) using photometric filters. Daily monitoring with V, B, and I filters would be sufficient.

Thank you for your consideration.
