Dear Taichi

I've been following ASASSN-14mv on the SAAO 74-in telescope with high =
speed photometry over the last two nights.=20

ASASSN-14mv has just gone into an echo outburst (much like ASASSN-14ei). =
Observations over the last 2 hours show a strong increase in brightness =
from 14.6 to 14.2 mag (HJD 2457033.374 - HJD 2457033.457).  Yesterday, =
the average magnitude was stable at 15.1 mag with a clear superhump =
profile. Continued coverage of this source will be very useful.

I cannot post to vsnet-alerts, but perhaps you can convey this message =
on the vsnet-alert list.

Best regards,
Patrick
