Only Clear glass filter (Astronomik) for CCD protection was used. Video evaluation accomplished with VirtualDub 1.9.7 and Tangra v1.2.0.373 Predicted event time was 01:20:30 UTC for my observing position. Predicted maximum duration was 1.8 seconds with a 4.1mag drop. Position was 61km from predicted central line in NE direction between path edge and 1-sigma line with a probability of 7.7%. No occultation event detected (It=160ms). 3-D Position and timing Garmin GPS18x LVC Receiving 10 satellites Horizontal Dilution of Precision 1.0 Geoidal separation 44.5m (Altitude 558.1MSL + 44.5 = 602.6 m in WGS84 datum) Gerhard Dangl gerhard@dangl.at www.dangl.at/ +--------------------------------------------------------------------+
