   We propose 3 times 33 ks observations of NGC4258 (M106). M106 is a
   nearby (6.4 Mpc) spiral galaxy classified as a LINER. ASCA observed
   it in PV phase and found a strongly absorbed hard emission,
   presumably from a low luminosity AGN. The most wonderful thing about
   M106 is that its central (maybe) black hole mass and inclination
   angle are precisely determined by VLBI observations of water maser in
   1995. We are planning to study variability and spectral feature
   especially Fe-K line in detail.
