Anyone else still following Delta Sco?

As I believe Delta Sco is now too low in the sky for observers in France I'm wondering if it is still usefully visible from Spain and Portugal? As I'm located at -37 latitude I can still image if for a little longer, maybe another two weeks, until it drops below some buildings. Is anyone, anywhere else, still taking its spectra?
Cheers,
Bernard

Yes me !
In HeII4686 only with my LhiresIII for twilight observation. But not for a long time. My last observation, not reduced yet, is from Sept, 25th. I use 40 oph as comparison star

John Strachan, a neighbor, is doing Ha and would be able to follow it in HeII too with his L200.
Anybody else ? The campaign is still active.

Joan Guarro has also continued his observation and did send me the spectra for evaluation in RV and EW (see attachment).
Anatoly is also working on it (but as far as I know, he has been ill for a month approx.).
