Dear Colleagues,

I managed to do time resolved photometry on this transient, remotely using the 
0.43m-f/6.8 robotic unit part of the Virtual Telescope (www.virtualtelescope.eu).

The source clearly shows a modulation, with a full amplitude of 0.06 mags, 
resembling early superhumps.

A period search provided a candidate of 1.3(1) hours; the coverage of of about 
2.4 hours.

Data sent to Kyoto for analysis.

best
Gianluca Masi
