Scientific paper

We give a brief summary of the ongoing Abastumani Blazar Monitoring Program (ABMP) started in the May of 1997. More than 3 Gbt (~30000 frames) of data have been collected during 370 nights of observations for about 50 target objects. The preliminary results of two years monitoring of the ten selected AGNs carried out in the frame of ABMP are presented. All observations were done in the BVRI bands using a CCD ST-6 based photometer attached to the 70-cm meniscus telescope's Newtonian focus. Image reductions were made using different software packages of image reduction systems such as IRAF, MIDAS and STARLINK. All objects under study show light variations over one magnitude. The largest one was observed for AO 0235+116, which was equal to 4.0 mag in the R band.
