Dear Colleagues,

we managed to do time resolved photometry on MASTER OT J001952.31+464933.0 (ATel 
#4488), remotely using the 14" photometric unit part of the Virtual Telescope 
robotic facility, in Italy.

We see the source shows superhumps, with a full amplitude of 0.1 mags or so. An 
estimate by eye of Psh provides a value of 2.1 hours, suggesting a period into 
the period gap.

Data will be send to Kyoto for analysis.

regards,
Gianluca Masi
Francesca Nocentini
