Dear Colleagues,

after about 3.1 hours of time resolved photometry through
the remote 14" unit part of the Virtual Telescope, I've
found that the source is showing beautiful superhumps, with
an amplitude of 0.3 mag.

A period search provided a candidate of Psh = 2.21(0.08)
hours, so this star is showing a Period inside the period
gap.

Data will be sent to Kyoto for analysis.

Regards,
Gianluca Masi
