On UT 2007 Nov 18.44 and Nov 19.38, we observed XMMSL1 J070542.7-381442 (Read et al, ATEL 1282) with the Automated Palomar 60-inch telescope(Cenko et al 2006). We report I = 11.5 +/- 0.3 based on aperture photometry and calibration with respect to the USNO catalog. The telescope was defocussed to prevent saturation. We find no variability in the two sets of exposures on Nov 18.44 and Nov 19.38.
