MASTER OT J204657.11-694523.6 discovery - dwarf nova? with ampl>3.5m
MASTER-OAFA auto-detection system discovered OT source at (RA, Dec) = 20h 46m 57.11s -69d 45m 23.6s on 2017-06-30.21138 UT.
The OT unfiltered magnitude is 19.0m (mlim=19.8m).
The OT is seen in 3 images. There is no minor planet at this place.
We have reference image without OT on 2016-09-30.24641 UT with magnitude limit in 'BLANK' filter 20.0m.
There is only GSC 2.3 star with known blue jmag=22.56, it means current outburst amplitude's value is more then 3.5
Spectral observations are required.
The discovery and reference images are available at:

MASTER OT J155542.85-191147.8 discovery - dwarf nova outburst, ampl>4.1
MASTER-OAFA auto-detection system discovered OT source at (RA, Dec) = 15h 55m 42.85s -19d 11m 47.8s on 2017-06-15.07531 UT.
The OT unfiltered magnitude is 17.9m (mlim=19.6m).
The OT is seen in 4 images. There is no minor planet at this place.
We have reference image without OT on 2017-05-21.05551 UT with unfiltered m_limit = 19.3m.
There is only USNO-A2 star with B=16.9,R=17.4 in 1.9", it means 22m USNO-B1 limit and more then 4.1mag of current outburst amplitude.
Spectral observations are required.
