Variable candidate



While characterizing the flat compensation program I discovered a
candidate variable star.  It's coordinates (J2000) are:

RA   = 36.5101 degrees = 2h 26m 02.4s
Dec = -0.1785 degrees = -0d 10m 42s

These are the magnitudes recorded by my system:

Night	I	V	I	
371	7.008		6.600	
373		12.059	6.494	
374	6.974	11.891	6.465	
376		11.603	6.378	
377		11.436	6.303	

This is a very red star, V-I is > 5!  I wasn't able to find this
candidate in the general catalog of variable stars.  Does anyone have
information about this star?
