Due to some meters of ground fog a longer integration time was used. Only Clear glass filter (Astronomik) for CCD protection was used. Video evaluation accomplished with VirtualDub 1.9.7 and Tangra v1.2.0.373 Because of the use of a WAT-120N in integration mode frame8 (It=320ms) a correction of -190ms was made to the video inserted times according to the correction value table on: http://www.dangl.at/ausruest/vid_tim/vid_tim1.htm#wat_120n Predicted event time was 00:48:21 UTC for my observing position. Predicted maximum duration was 5.4 seconds with a 1.5mag drop. Position was 140km from predicted central line in SE direction between 1-sigma and 2-sigma line with a probability of 10.5%. Occultation event with a duration of 3.84s detected (It=320ms). 3-D Position and timing Garmin GPS18x LVC Receiving 09 satellites Horizontal Dilution of Precision 1.0 Geoidal separation 44.5m (Altitude 542.2MSL + 44.5 = 586.7 m in WGS84 datum) Gerhard Dangl gerhard@dangl.at www.dangl.at/ +--------------------------------------------------------------------+
