Here's my pre-discovery image taken 5 days earlier showing the new SN. I missed this one!!! I checked the image for new objects around the larger galaxy, NGC6855, which was centered in the field. I didn't see the tiny little newbie at 18.0 magnitude near PGC161935 at the time, must have been too tired by 1am to notice it..Doh!!
And btw, I get a value of 780 Mlyrs (using H0=72). This is a new distance record for BOSS, previous one being 733 Mlyrs (PGC75651)
