KK Tel superhumps! Dear Colleagues, Tom Richards has kindly sent two nights' excellent data of KK Tel. The light curve shows clear presence of fully developed superhumps with an amplitude of 0.2 mag. The best superhump period derived from these data is 0.0876(1) d. This observation has confirmed (to a much better quality!) of the previous detection of the long-period superhumps (Kato et al. 2003, MNRAS 339, 861). This period is slightly shorter than the previous determination. Since the present superoutburst is very favorably situated, continued observations are very strongly needed!! Regards, Taichi Kato VSNET Collaboration team
