Its not in the online content yet, but the March issue of Sky & Telescope magazine has an article on subject that includes a table of magnitudes collected by SeeSat members Jay Respler Brad Young Bram Dorreman and Ron Lee. It should go online in the next few days. 

Our local club newsletter includes an article about it, by another author that cribs a lot from the S&T article (as John freely admits), and another by me describing use of the Perth telescope. Not sure why the pdf version of the newsletter is quite so messed up.
