V893 Sco: possible superhump period

   Josch Hambsch has reported time-series observations of V893 Sco on
March 1.  The object showed large-amplitude (0.4 mag) variations.
Since the object has faded from an outburst plateau, these modulations
may not be true superhumps.  We can get, however, a period of 0.07851(1) d
by linking with earlier observations.  This period corresponds to
a fractional superhump excess of 3.4 %.  The existence of superhumps
and period should be confirmed by future observations.
