The astronomer from the Sir Thomas Brisbane Planetarium rang me back. He said that during that period, Eta Carinae got brighter from Mag. 4.65 to 4.55. and has been steadily getting brighter. It's not significant - not quite half a mag. But he did say it could have experienced a spike. He further went on to say that if there is an occurrence it is not necessarily released to the public straight away.
