Only Clear glass filter (Astronomik) for CCD protection was used. Video evaluation accomplished with VirtualDub 1.10.0, Tangra v1.4.0.499 Because of the use of a WAT-120N CCIR in integration mode Frame8 (It=320ms), a correction of -190ms was performed at the times inserted in the video by the VTI The correction value is according to measurements results with EXposure Time Analyzer - EXTA. http://www.dangl.at/exta/exta_e.htm So all event times in this report are corrected times representing the real event times. Event data details according to the predictions from IBEROC. Predicted event time was 18:56:49 UTC (+/- 26s) for my observing position. Predicted maximum duration was 16.8 seconds with a 0.3mag drop. Position was -57km from predicted central line in NW direction between path edge and 1-sigma line with a probability of 24.5%. Occultation event detected with duration 16.641s +/-0.34s (It=0.32s). 3-D Position and timing Garmin GPS18x LVC Receiving 08 satellites Horizontal Dilution of Precision 0.9 Geoidal separation 44.5m (Altitude 552.6MSL + 44.5 = 597.1 m in WGS84 datum) Gerhard Dangl gerhard@dangl.at www.dangl.at/ +--------------------------------------------------------------------+
