  We have observed YZ Cnc at two day intervals from 6 to 24 April 1998,
covering two full outburst cycles. The 0.1-2.4 keV flux is lower during optical
outburst than in quiescence, and lowest at the end of the outburst. The decline
of the X-ray flux in the quiescent interval appears to be in contrast to
prediction of simple models for accretion-disk instabilities. Variability on
\~hour time scales is present, but appears not related to the orbital phase. YZ
Cnc was less luminous in X-rays during our 1998 observations than in earlier
ROSAT observations.
