V745 SCORPII
     Elizabeth O. Waagen, AAVSO, reports the discovery of an outburst of the
recurrent nova V745 Sco by Rod Stubbings (Tetoora Road, Vic., Australia) at
visual mag 9.0 on Feb. 6.694 UT.  Previous outbursts occurred in 1937 and 1989
(cf. IAUCs 4820, 4821, 4822).  Stubbings reported that the variable was
fainter than mag 13.0 on Feb. 5.696.  The outburst has been confirmed by
numerous CCD observers, as detailed in AAVSO Alert Notice 496.  Visual
magnitude estimates reported by A. Pearce, Nedlands, Western Australia:
Feb. 7.809, 10.1; 7.858, 10.2.
