Dear Colleagues,

We've received further data from Arto Oksanen, Nakajima-san,
OUS team (Okayama, Japan), and Maehara-san. Kyoto team also 
succeeded in observing QY Per two consecutive nights. A period
analysis shows a periodicity of 0.08 days (with large error).
Another information is that superhump features are still 
distinct (0.3 mag amplitude) and the magnitude is about 14.6.

It's a good season to observe QY Per.
The precise coordinate of the object is (RA 03:15:36.8 Dec +42:28:15).
The 1999 superoutburst of QY Per can be seen at
