The new object is located at R.A. = 20h26m26s.03, Decl. = +02o54'32".1 (equinox 2000.0), which is 5".1 east and 3".4 south of the center of the galaxy IC 1320 (in close proximity to the bright nuclear core). Nothing is visible at this position on a Digitized Sky Survey blue plate from 1990 July 19 or a red plate from 1990 Aug. 19. Arbour adds that D. Briggs (Havant, Portsmouth, England) obtained a confirming image with a 0.60-m f/4.7 Newtonian reflector on Oct. 8.925.
