Here's last night's spectrum. Increase in Ha as you'd expect.
I think I was wrong. The odd "emission" band around 8400 was there again even though I had the camera at a different angle. I suspect it's not a background star after all. Going back to the old 1989 spectra in the Williams article in my first post, after a few days the deep red/infrared features of the nova's red giant companion (M8III) began to emerge. I suspect we're seeing that. If so, it's quite amazing.
