Scientific paper

We report that at 06:30UT on 11 Nov 2008 (MJD54781.27) a microquasar Cyg X-3 (RA=20:32:25.78, Dec=40:57:27.9 J2000) is showing a flare, and its radio flux density of about 1.0 +- 0.2 Jy at 8.4 GHz. This measurement has been made with Yamaguchi-32m radio telescope. Pooley (Atel #1828) report that Cyg X-3 was in a quenched state (2 to 3 mJy at 15 GHz) on 2008 November 4 & 5. As Pooley noted that such low flux densities are often followed by a major flare.
