Abstract
We report on the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) observation of the polar, QS Tel, made during 1994 June. Orbital modulation is present in both the continuum and lines. A narrow dip is observed in the continuum folded light curve. The spectrum of the occulted source during this dip is broadly consistent in shape with the Rayleigh-Jeans tail of the EUV source.
