   RXJ1940.2-1025, recently discovered to be the source responsible for
   the periodic signals previously associated with NGC 6814, is now known
   to be an AM Her system. Optical observations and a re-evaluation of
   earlier X-ray data have shown that this object has a number of unusual
   features. We propose detailed observations of RXJ1940.2-1025 with ASCA
   in order to: (i) understand the origin of the prominent dip, i.e.,
   absorption due to the accretion column or eclipse by the secondary;
   (ii) understand the accretion geometry of RXJ1940.2-1025 through phase-
   resolved spectroscopy; (iii) perform the first detailed study of the
   hard X-ray component.
