Hi rogerg, it sounds like a great challenge, if you have the gear to observe it!
If you look at the map you can see the occultation track for satellite P2 passes pretty close to Perth (the solid blue line). You may see an occulation by this recently discovered moon. As detailed in the first post, you may even catch an occulation by an undiscovered moon.
It looks like there are a lot of unknowns in the elements for the new moon plus the possibility of undiscovered rings around Pluto so anything could happen. Even if you record no event at all, that information helps constrain the parameters of the Pluto system eg maximum size of P2, presence and size of ring system etc.
Good luck! I'd be very interested in any results you were able to get.
