I ADDED BSM V OBSERVATIONS TO SEVERAL OF MY RECENT SIERRA STARS MIRA TARGETS AND TOOK A SCREEN SHOT OF PERANSO. IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO SEE THE RESULTS OF INTERMINGLED AAVSO VIS, V AND BSM V OBSERVATIONS, TAKE A LOOK AT THE FOLLOWING CURVES STORED IN MY DROPBOX:
"SEVERAL MIRA LIGHT CURVES WITH BSM V RESULTS INCLUDED"

Chris, Thanks for sharing your light curves. The BSM does a very good job and it is interesting to see the BSM V and other V data points in reference to the visual estimates. The visual estimates of Mira's tend to good at cycle peaks, but too faint at cycle minimums. Also, like many other stars, CCD coverage in the Mira light curves is incomplete and more data are needed. I too am active in the CCD photometry of under-observed Mira's and I encourage others to do CCD photometry of these variables. Kevin Paxson - PKV
I tried to access these files, but dropbox sez they were already shared with Kevin and won't let me see them. Can you share them with me, Chris?
