  I just saw Michael K.'s second note -- our messages crossed
in the ether.  The period of the star is 7.6 days, according
to Sebastian and Michael K.  The three discrepant TASS measurements
fall within a span of about 300 seconds, or a range of 0.0004 in phase.
That means that _if_ they are not in error, then they could all
three fall very easily within the width of an eclipse (as shown
in Michael K.'s graph).

  If these three measurements were several hours apart, there
would be no doubt that they must be in error.  But I still
can't find the smoking gun which proves they are wrong beyond
a reasonable doubt.
