Carter_SDSSJ173047.59+554518.5: superhumps

   Enrique de Moguel has reported observations.  The object
showed prominent superhumps on April 6.  The amplitudes
were 0.08 mag with a secondary maximum on the fading branch.
The period was 0.02461(5) d, 0.7% longer than the orbital
period.  It is not known whether the present superhumps
are stage A or stage B, but we were probably lucky enough to
record the early stage of the outburst.
