Some new times of light maxima for three δ Scuti stars – CY Aqr, BS Aqr and AD CMi – have been determined based on new photoelectric photometry. Incorporated with the times presented in the literature, the O–C method is used to study the period variations of these stars with a newly-developed program OMC. The results reveal that for these three stars, the binary hypothesis concerning a low mass companion is reasonable in explaining the O–C diagrams.
