Scientific paper

SAXJ1818.6-1703 was discovered with BeppoSAX in 1998 (in't Zand et al. 1998, IAUC # 6840 ) and observed in outburst more than once (flux of few 10**-9 erg s**-1 cm**-2, Grebenev & Sunyaev 2005, AstL 31, 672; Sguera et al. 2005, A&A 444, 221). A Chandra observation in 2006 caught this source at a flux level of of 7.5x10**-12 erg s-1 cm-2 (in't Zand et al. 2006; ATel #915), thus suggesting a ratio of maximum to minimum X-ray flux of ~10**3.
