C. C. Dudley and J. Fischer, Naval Research Laboratory, report the discovery of a new point source (mag K' about 14) in NGC 3683 observed with the U.S. Naval Observatory 1.55-m telescope (+ 2.1-micron K' filter + ASTROCAM 1024x1024 ALADDIN InSb imager) on at Flagstaff on Jan. 12.5 UT. The position of the source is R.A. = 11h27m29s.72 Decl. = +56o52'48".2 (equinox 2000.0), based on positions of three 2MASS stars, which is 17" west and 10" north of the K' nucleus of NGC 3683. The source shows no perceptible drift over 8 min (seeing about 1") and was not present on 2003 May 18, the most recent prior observation with ASTROCAM.
