Ian,
Interesting that you are in Spain. One of the challenges is to observe V1159 Ori ( Declination only -3 degrees) around conjunction. The best place would be from the Equator. All my reported observations have been via an AAVSOnet project.
I forgot to use the Slooh Canary 2 (27 deg latitude) instrument this summer for the job – especially as it now has a V filter.

VSX gives a period of 90min for V1159 Ori.
