   Terskol team (Maksim Andreev, relayed by E. Pavlenko) has reported
new observations.  The object has stopped fading and exhibit double-wave
modulations similar to early superhumps.  The amplitude of variations
was 0.06 mag.  The period since the rapid fading stage has been 0.05721(6) d,
while the period determined from observations since Dec. 24 has been
0.05662(4) d.  The latter period is 1% shorter than the period of
early superhumps.  More observations are encouraged to clarify the periods
and nature of these modulations.
