[Aavso-photometry] First timer

[Jim Roe]

After weeks of preparation, I think I am ready to submit my first V and 
Ic photometry (of N VUL 07).  My results appear consistent with what 
others are getting (I know that is NOT a criterion for submitting) but I 
still have a question or two.  In particular,

I'm using Maxim DL to reduce the data and the fainter companion star is 
right smack in the middle of the background annulus.  I understand that 
Maxim lops off the brightest 10% and faintest 10% of the pixels in the 
annulus, so maybe it isn't a problem?

I used the 88 star for reference and the 98 and 101 stars for checks. 
The checks show a standard deviation of 0.02 mag in V and Ic.  Does that 
seem reasonable?
