MASTER OT J070747.72-672205.6 detection - possible dwarf nova outburst with Ampl>3.4m
MASTER-SAAO auto-detection system ( Lipunov et al., Advances in Astronomy, MASTER Global Robotic Net, 2010 ) discovered OT source at (RA, Dec) = 07h 07m 47.72s -67d 22m 05.6s on 2015-09-21.99535 UT.
The OT unfiltered magnitude is 16.9m (limit 19.2m).
The OT is seen in 8 images. There is no minor planet at this place.
We have reference images without OT on 2014-12-25.02683 UT with unfiltered magnitude limit 20.0m, on
2015-02-24.863UT with m_lim=20.3.
Spectral observations are required.

MASTER OT J010654.20-254135.1 variability detection with Ampl>~2m
MASTER-SAAO auto-detection system discovered OT source at (RA, Dec) = 01h 06m 54.20s -25d 41m 35.1s on 2015-09-15.99924 UT.
The OT unfiltered magnitude is 18.3m (limit 20.6m).
There are 6 images with OT:
2015-09-15 23:58:54.074 19.1
2015-09-16 00:13:36.307 19.0
2015-09-16 00:24:23.094 18.3
2015-09-23 20:33:30.316 19.9
2014-08-26 23:37:16 20.2
There is no minor planet at this place. There is star with variability in B,R, and with NUV=21.6. So we can suggest the amplitude of variability >~2m
Spectral observations are required.
