It is perfectly possible to make a significant contribution to the hobby with just a few, well targetted, observations each week. For example in the last couple of years there were some outstandingly interesting novae well within the range of amateur astronomers. When you look at the results note how few other people managed to observe the novae using filters and note how few nights observations were missed due to bad weather!
The results for observer NMR are mine and have a black box around them.
The AAVSO has a excellent reputation for identifying useful targets for amateur observers. It is well worth keeping the AAVSO Observing Campaigns and the Exoplanet Transit web pages under review.
