Faintest object visible on live video fields (It=320ms) was target star. Only Clear glass filter (Astronomik) for CCD protection was used. Video evaluation accomplished with VirtualDub1.8.6, AviSynth2.5 and Limovie0.9.29b. To evaluate the 18 lossless HuffYUV compressed video segments (60GB/29GB) direct in Limovie additional the script controlled software AviSynth2.5 was used. No occultation detected (It=640/320ms) 3-D Position and timing Garmin GPS18x LVC Receiving 09 satellites Horizontal Dilution of Precision 1.1 Geoidal separation 44.5m (Altitude 550.8MSL + 44.5 = 595.3 m in WGS84 datum) Gerhard Dangl gerhard@dangl.at www.dangl.at/ +--------------------------------------------------------------------+
