  20000113.814   156: (G. Poyner)  uncertain

  A period above the period gap has been suggested, but requries further
confirmation.  The outbursts of KW And are not so infrequent (I observed
several times when I did CCD survey years ago).  Perhaps the faintness
has made visual detections difficult.
