The pole-on Be star υ Cyg (HD 202904) displayed with Hipparcos photometry a strong long-lived outburst between 1989 and 1993. High S/N spectroscopic observations were obtained in August-September 1998. The photospheric λ6678 line is strongly perturbed by variable outer V and R emission components and is itself highly variable.

All the studied quantities (profiles, EW, radial velocity of the line centroid, V and R emission components, V/R ratio) are dominated by ν = 1.5 c/d frequency. The first harmonic (ν = 3.0 c/d) is also detected in the central part of the profile. In the nrp frame, this pair of frequencies corresponds to a low degree sectorial g-mode l = |m| = 2. Moreover mid-term variations are superimposed to short ones.
