John, Guy, I've just had a look at the AAVSO website looking for charts for this star, but curiously it states that it is a semi-regular with a magnitude range...
Keith, The range quoted is the photographic range and not the visual range which is very different for red variables like BQ Ori. BAA VSS chart MDT 1984 Apr...

... Dear Eddy, Thanks for that. Looking at AAVSO data of V426 Oph between say JD2453100-2453300, it appears to be quite unclear when an outburst occurs....
... Data after 2453180 have not been validated, so some of the scatter will likely disappear after points are examined for error. Visual observations will...
