Faintest object visible on live video fields (It=20ms) was TYC 2934 1328, +10.9mag. Only Clear glass filter (Astronomik) for CCD protection was used. Video evaluation accomplished with VirtualDub1.8.6, AviSynth2.5 and Limovie0.9.29b No occultation detected (It=20ms) 3-D Position and timing Garmin GPS18x LVC Receiving 08 satellites Horizontal Dilution of Precision 1.0 Geoidal separation 44.5m (Altitude 551.7MSL + 44.5 = 596.2 m in WGS84 datum) Gerhard Dangl gerhard@dangl.at www.dangl.at/ +--------------------------------------------------------------------+
