I have had a period of no v.s. observations, but still I am interested about this star. And maybe some others also. And please let me know if a dwarf nova GX Cas is in your observing programme. I have seen the star with dis- tinctly two kinds of outbursts. The brighter ones with magnitude 13-13.5, which says the star is among the brightest in that constellation! Still goes unobserved. I propose that these maxima are super-ones, and most likely have superhumps, easily detected by your instru- ments. The reason for ignorance about this star may be the displacement in the first version of AAVSO preliminary chart. On request I will send a chart with corrected position. Timo Kinnunen
