[Gianluca Masi]

Dear Colleagues,

I had a 3 hours long run on this OT, before the clouds forced me to stop. I 
remotely used the photometric 14" unit part of the Virtual Telescope Project.

The OT is clearly superhumping, with an amplitude of 0.5 mags. Also, it is 
showing sharp, >2-mag deep eclipses Their duration is around 25-30 minutes.

I performed a Psh search, obtaining a period candidate of 2.27 hours, into the 
period gap.

The LC is available here:

Data will be sent to Kyoto for analysis.

Regards,
Gianluca
