   The CRTS and ASAS-SN light curves resembles a Z Cam star
with very long standstills.  Dwarf nova-type outbursts
in 2018 April in the ASAS-SN data.
The object, however, looks too faint (M_V = +6) in
standstill and too blue (G-R= +0.3).  The orbital period
may be short.  Time-series and spectroscopic observations
will be interesting.
