  We report on analysis of the two-color VR CCD observations of the newly
discovered variable 2MASS J18024395+4003309=VSX J180243.9+400331 obtained using
the 1-m telescope of the Mt. Lemmon Observatory (LOAO) in the field of the
intermediate polar V1323 Her. The extended version of this conference talk we
published in 2015JASS...32..127A. The variability was reported in
2012OAP....25..150A, and the object was monitored. The two-color observations
covered all phase interval. The object is classified as an Algol-type variable
with tidally distorted components, and shows an asymmetry of the maxima (the
O\'Connell effect). For phenomenological modeling, we used the trigonometric
polynomial approximation of statistically optimal degree, and a recent method
"NAV" (New Algol Variable) using local specific shapes for the eclipse.
Methodological aspects are described, especially for the case of few color
observations. Estimates of the physical parameters based on analysis of
phenomenological parameters, are presented.
