	Star image stability: fair
	Minor planet visible: no
	Temperature: 283 Kelvin (+10 deg Celsius)
	
8.ADDITIONAL COMMENTS:
        Target star HIP 110796, +9.2mag, 15deg Elevation.
        Only Clear glass filter (Astronomik) for CCD protection was used.

        Due to the low star elevation on hazy sky the star signal was relative weak.

        Video evaluation accomplished with VirtualDub 1.10.0, Tangra v1.4.0.497

        Event data details according to the predictions from Steve Preston.
        Predicted event time was 20:26:47 UTC (+/- 9s) for my observing position.
        Predicted maximum duration was 2.9 seconds with a 5.6mag drop.
        Position was 352km from predicted central line in WSW direction
        between 1-sigma and 2-sigma limit with a probability of 2.9%.
        No occultation event detected (It=20ms).
