    Possible new CV @ 1950.8 and 1969.4 (EPIC 202064080 @ 06 11 16.128,+22 35 08.27) although reminiscent of an HB. The only known CV I found @ RA = 6 in the IVSI is V0959 Mon @ 06 39 38.60 +05 53 53.0

    Exactly! It was the only one I noted down for my list it is huge! I honestly thought the others might be causes of processing glitches if I remember correctly they were approximately located in the same range.

    IMO both of them look like stellar variability , magnitude of humps is rather waaaaaaaaaaayyyyy too low for genuine DN

    EPIC 202061204 looks like a flare, but there is few stars in optimal apperture who knowns maybe the source is one them although I doubt this

    Goes under |GO0036_LC|GO0044_LC
