George,

That one is a full magnitude plus fainter than I've even tried (plus the low elevation)--I'm pretty doubtful I'd get anything meaningful from it.

Subject: [OccultNEUS] Multi-site Input in Occult4
Oc-folks:
Just quickly... Whilst making up plans for tonight I ran across a good example of why it's nice to input the Lat & Long of other's sites into Occult4. (I can explain how to do this in a later chat).
In short, in the 2 attached images you can see the sites of other NEUS observers (the "dots"), and when the path is plotted it becomes instantly obvious if the path you are considering passes by anyone else. Here you can see an event I was considering also passes near Steve C and Michel M. If set up correctly you can even access Google Earth from Occult4 and zoom in (way in!) to see how close a path actually runs.
BTW, this event is a bit too faint (maybe?) - 15.5 combined, Max dur of 1.06 sec.
Steve -- I'll be responding to your "Thoughts?" post.... when I have spare moment. Now back to tonight's planning. (Got 1 Pos last night).
