Only Clear glass filter (Astronomik) for CCD protection was used Target star UCAC2 26949243, +11.2mag, 25deg Elevation Limit on video fields was UCAC2 26949568, +13.1mag 3-D Position and timing Garmin GPS18 LVC Receiving 07 satellites Horizontal Dilution of Precision 1.1 Geoidal separation 44.4m (Altitude 540.6MSL + 44.4 = 585.0m in WGS84 datum) Gerhard Dangl gerhard@dangl.at www.dangl.at/ +--------------------------------------------------------------------+
