"Kazuya Ayani, Bisei Astronomical Observatory (BAO),
Ibara, Okayama, Japan, reports that a low-resolution
spectrogram (range 400-800 nm; resolution 0.5 nm at
H-alpha) of this TCP was obtained with the BAO 1.01-m
telescope. It shows H-beta, H-gamma, H-delta absorption
lines on a blue continuum. Presence of H-alpha line is
not clear probably because the absorption is filled
with the emission. These imply that it may be a dwarf
nova rather than a classical nova. The spectrum can be
viewed via website URL
