    Moving on from V1159 Ori ( see earlier topic) I am working on the superoutburst of IX Dra. I am most grateful to R Sargent for observations on 2459906 that fills an observational gap. However, I am stuck with three unobserved super outbursts. TESS, BAA, and AAVSO databases do not cover superoutbursts at the following approximate ( +- 5 days) times:

    2460260, 2460630 and 2460750
    Does anyone have observations around this time?

    I have done battle with ASAS-SN and Lasair and lost. I may well be approaching these two systems incorrectly.

    Can anyone help?

    So that’s around 2023 Nov 11, 2024 Nov 15 and 2025 Mar 15. I will check tomorrow.
    It was in outburst last night.
