Seeing is not so good, but the spot is visible.

It is impossible to measure position precisely with such quality of data,
but we have two results with relatively long time interval (august 10 and
22), so I propose a new ephemeris (use it with caution, I can't quarantee
that it is absolutely correct).

Rough estimation:

10.08 2015 22:00 -> 126

10.08 2015 22:00 -> 76 (average value based on the data of all stacks)

So, drift speed of the spot is about 25.8 per day
