Only Clear glass filter (Astronomik) for CCD protection was used. Video evaluation accomplished with VirtualDub 1.10.0, Tangra v1.4.0.435 Event data details according to the predictions from EAN. Predicted event time was 00:05:23 UTC (+/- 21s) for my observing position. Predicted maximum duration was 2.8 seconds with a 3.9mag drop. Position was 108km from predicted central line in NW direction between path edge and 1-sigma line with a probability of 5.1%. No occultation event detected (It=0.08s). 3-D Position and timing Garmin GPS18x LVC Receiving 07 satellites Horizontal Dilution of Precision 1.4 Geoidal separation 44.6m (Altitude 562.0MSL + 44.6 = 606.6 m in WGS84 datum) Gerhard Dangl gerhard@dangl.at www.dangl.at/ +--------------------------------------------------------------------+
