Only Clear glass filter (Astronomik) for CCD protection was used. Video evaluation accomplished with VirtualDub 1.10.0 Event data details according to the predictions from EAON. Predicted event time was 22:37:35 UTC (+/- 27s) for my observing position. Predicted maximum duration was 2.8 seconds with a 5.2mag drop. Position was 186km from predicted central line in SW direction between 1-sigma and 2-sigma limit with a probability of 2.3%. No occultation event detected (It=160ms). 3-D Position and timing GlobalSat EM-406A GPS Board Receiving 07 satellites Horizontal Dilution of Precision 1.3 Geoidal separation 44.6m (Altitude 557.6MSL + 44.6 = 602.2 m in WGS84 datum) Gerhard Dangl gerhard@dangl.at www.dangl.at/ +--------------------------------------------------------------------+
