Thanks, Brian
I knew you would give us the scoop! This one ought to be on the red star
lists. It is near the golden comet and makes a colorful contrast if you
just swing the scope over to it.

>> Red star is at 3h 41m, +51.6
Close enough: it's the carbon star HD 232820 = V466 Per = CGCS 541.
It was first reported as a carbon star by Espin in 1896 from
visual spectroscope observations. Coords are: 3 41 29.6 +51 30 12 (J2000).
Typically about mag 8.5 but somewhat variable.
