Would it be a good idea to continuously monitor a location like TYC 1220-91-1 or the WOW! signal source, to see if it is an all sky beacon with a repeating cycle of several years?

Why? There's nothing there to monitor... ;)

the WOW! signal source


I didn't think they'd ever narrowed down the exact coordinates of that signal.
