   The last recorded superoutburst of this object was in 2006 (ASAS discovery).
During this 2006 superoutburst, early superhumps were detected
(vsnet-alert 8824).  See more details in messages at the time, and
description in Pdot paper.

   Unfortunately, this object has not been well monitored recently.
(The last CSS observation was on Feb. 11).
