The first results of the analysis of new EXOSAT observations of the DQ Her type cataclysmic variable TV Col are presented. The period of the 1–10 kev X-ray pulsation associated with the white-dwarf rotation is now established as 1911 s. The pulsations are most pronounced in the lower energy channels (1–3.5 keV). The X-ray light curve shows absorption features associated with the orbital period of the system.
