MASTER OT J180409.47-761337.3 discovery - dwarf nova? outburst, ampl>3.6m

MASTER-SAAO auto-detection system ( Lipunov et al., "MASTER Global Robotic Net", Advances in Astronomy, 2010, 30L ) discovered OT source at (RA, Dec) = 18h 04m 09.47s -76d 13m 37.3s on 2017-06-30.81575 UT.
The OT unfiltered magnitude is 16.9m (mlim=19.0). The OT is seen in 3 images. There is no minor planet at this place.
We have reference image on 2015-11-06.82870 UT with unfiltered mlim= 20.4m.
Spectral observations are required.
The discovery and reference images are available at:

MASTER OT J035348.19-704040.5 discovery - blue OT (dwarf nova?), ampl>5.5

MASTER-SAAO auto-detection system discovered OT source at (RA, Dec) = 03h 53m 48.19s -70d 40m 40.5s on 2017-06-24.12387 UT.
The OT unfiltered magnitude is 17.5m (mlim=19.8).
The OT is seen in 2 images. There is no minor planet at this place.
We have reference image on 2015-10-19.86316 UT with unfiltered mlim=20.0m, on 2016-11-07 20:33:24 with mlim=19.5.
There is only GSC 2.3 known star with blue jmag=21.89 in 1975.943, it means 22m POSS limit and more then 5.5 value of current outburst amplitude
Spectral observations are required.
