Abstract
Light curves for this anti-dwarf nova are presented.
Introduction
LQ Peg is a cataclysmic binary star, that is with an accreting white
dwarf in a binary system. It is classified as being of the VY Scl type
(anti-dwarf nova), with 3 observed fading episodes in 1966, 1999 and 2003.
It is also a CBA

Observations
The observations were carried out with a 203 mm SC telescope, a Clear filter
and a SBIG ST7E camera (KAF401E CCD). 176 images were obtained, each exposure being 1 mn long.
The comparison star is GSC 1128-00240 with an assumed unfiltered magnitude of
13.0. The check star is GSC 1128-00816 with an observed magnitude of 13.613
(standard deviation 0.042).
Resulting light curves:
Red: LQ Peg, Blue: the check star, shifted by +1.2 mag. The error bars
are the +/-1-sigma uncertainties.
