Classified as an UGSU based on superhump detection (vsnet-alert 24074). These humps, however, were seen only on two nights (2020 Mar. 16 and 18) and no humps were apparent on Mar. 19. The ZTF data show distinct high and low states unlike an UGSU star. The magnitude (around 16) in 2020 Mar. was too faint (MV=+6.6) for a superoutburst (vsnet-alert 27165). Too blue for a polar (vsnet-alert 27178). Could rather be an active NL/VY star, like KR Aur, dominated by low states (vsnet-alert 27191).
SU UMa-type dwarf nova above the period gap, superhump period 0.116 d. (vsnet-outburst 24821). The spectrum has a flat continuum with obvious H and He I emission lines. The lack of He II emission lines suggests that the star is not strongly magnetic (2017AN....338..794W). Gaia DR2 parallax 1.2959 ± 0.0585 mas (distance 755 ± 35 pc).
