Following a request by E. O. Waagen to AAVSO members, several observers have sent their confirming observations. R. Miles, Stourton Caundle, Dorset, England, reports the following position end figures for the variable star (at V = 15.2-15.3) from unfiltered CCD images taken on Oct. 26.963 with a 0.28-m f/10 Schmidt-Cassegrain reflector: 12s.24 ± 0s.01, 17".6 ± 0".1. D. Boyd, West Challow, U.K., reports that his V-band CCD exposures with a 0.35-m Schmidt-Cassegrain reflector, presumably taken around Oct. 27.0 UT, yield V = 15.2, V-I about 0, and position end figures 12s.26 ± 0s.19, 17".5 ± 0".1; he adds that 4 hr of V- and I-band photometry shows a strong superhump signal with peak-to-peak amplitude 0.2 mag, indicating that it is probably a SU UMa-type cataclysmic variable. The mean superhump period over this 4-hr interval was 0.0541 ± 0.0027 days. R. Stanton, Three Rivers, CA, reports unfiltered CCD mag approximately 15.4 on Oct. 27.25.
