[Aavso-photometry] Var Her 04 Update: yet another field variable?

[Rolling Hills Obs (Shawn D)]

Looking at my 3.5 hour run on the morning of 6/25 UT I don't see any
significant variation in the suspected field variable.  It shows random
scatter with a range of about 0.04 mag., with an average mag of 12.4v using
the 120 comp star.  My exposures were 3 minutes through a V filter.
