ETS 6 (94-056A, 23230, Kiku 6) flash episodes on Feb 24 UTC, 
in spite of lots of moonlight of course, and considerable 
cirrus cloudiness.

3:28:34.4 to 3:31:13.7 (about RA 3:20, Dec -12.5; seen with 
binoculars, but very bright); PPAS report on this group:

94- 56 A 02-02-24 03:31:13.7 EC  159.3 0.2  19  8.39  mag +3.5->inv

Its rotation is still accelerating!  On Feb. 12 I got 8.457.
Here's the second episode on Feb 24:

3:54:21.5 to 3:56:10.4 (about RA 5:15, Dec. -23; six seen 
without binoculars)

Three nights before it was just cloudy enough to prevent me
from seeing it.
