MASTER OT J062100.35-585120.5 detection - dwarf nova outburst, Ampl>4.5m

MASTER-SAAO auto-detection system ( Lipunov et al., "MASTER Global Robotic Net", Advances in Astronomy, 2010, 30L ) discovered OT source at (RA, Dec) = 06h 21m 00.35s -58d 51m 20.5s on 2016-11-05.90053 UT.
The OT unfiltered magnitude is 17.5 (mlim=19.2).
The OT is seen in 4 images. There is no minor planet at this place.
We have reference image on 2015-09-02.12098 UT with unfiltered mlim= 18.9m. There is GSC2.3.2 star (previous outburst in 1979y) and GALEX source ( accretion process), and absense in USNO-B1(22m POSS limit in history), i.e. more then 4.5m the ampl of current outburst.
Spectral observations are required.
The discovery and reference images are available http://master.sai.msu.ru/static/OT/062100.35-585120.5.png

MASTER OT J182053.43-394609.3 detection - bright high amplitude dwarf nova outburst, Ampl>6.1m

MASTER-SAAO auto-detection system discovered OT source at (RA, Dec) = 18h 20m 53.43s -39d 46m 09.3s on 2016-10-31.78582 UT.
The OT unfiltered magnitude is 15.9m (mlim=17.9). The OT is seen in 12 images. There is no minor planet at this place.
We have reference image on 2015-02-24.08983 UT with unfiltered mlim= 19.0m.There is only GAIA source, i.e. 22mag POSS limit and more then 6.1m of current outburst amplitude
Spectral observations are required.
