George,? given your experience in using Occult4,?? would you consider providing a Zoom session on getting it setup and running?? Over the years, OW has fulfilled my occultation planning needs.

Folks: 1st, Congrats to Steve and Kevin on the Palisana hits! Please pardon the length of this post, but I'm thinking some might enjoy a "story from the trenches"... So... I was able to try for the

Kevin (G): Yes, I have your site data (the lat/long of the WAS Observatory), and I've had you in my Occult4 "site list" for some time now. But.... Please consider going to the NEUS post "List of

All, ? Just in case someone wants them, I do have 2 Kiwis, 2 Watec 902s and 2 Stellacam EXs I never use any more.? If you know anyone who'd want them (and really use them), happy to give them

Good morning.? Here is my "occbio" Observer:? Roxanne Kamin Nearest Town:? Harrisburg, PA What's (approx) the faintest magnitude you can normally video record?:? ~14 What best describes your

Kevin, ? FYI, PyOTE measured my magnitude drop as 0.13.? Event mid-point time was within a second of the predict.?? ? ? Steve C

Observer: Rick Bria Nearest Town: Greenwich, CT What's (approx) the faintest magnitude you can normally video record?: ~13 What best describes your occultation ability [Experienced / Novice /

I likely got a hit of >3 sec, but pulling it out of the noise will take some work.

George, you have my location details already, correct?

For me: Observer:? Steve Conard Nearest Town:? Wellsboro, PA What's (approx) the faintest magnitude you can normally video record?:? 14.0 What best describes your occultation ability [Experienced /

As was mentioned by Steve Conard (creator of this list) and myself, a *voluntary* , running (up-to-date) list of observers would be helpful in coordinating observers so we can try to obtain

Thanks Steve. I'll input your location into Occult4 and then instantly know if you are near events I'm observing. Also - Thanks for the willingness to maintain a "list" and "map" of observers. In a

George, Sorry, that path is way north of me. Once I get the Astrid going, I will be willing to occasionally travel to get on a path. We can start such a list here. If willing, name and observing

Folks: A target for me tonight in the early morning hours (see attached). I'm gathering there's nobody on the list near the path tho. Sure would be nice if we kept a running list of subscribers to

Right now we have 3 stations for Palisana this evening, and the weather looks like we at least have a chance. I've pinged two more folks who aren't on this list to try it. Frank C--I think you are the

Steve, The observatory I use at my school, has everything automated except the dome. I plan to acquire the target ahead of time, then pre-point the dome to the correct azimuth. I will then go mobile

Well, so far I'm still wheeling out the C11 and setting it up here in the driveway.? WiFi is a bit inconsistent for remote work, but I hope to get that resolved before the cold weather settles in. ?

Rick, ? Sounds like you and I are on the same path--with automating and observatory and going mobile for a second station.? I just got done motorizing my 10' TI ProDome with hardware salvaged from

Kevin G, ? My feeling is I'd drop the durations of all of them a bit--I think most of us have access to fairly large telescopes.? Maybe drop 12 to 0.1 (or even shorter), 14 to 0.2, 16 to

Kevin, The parameters you’ve established are fine with me. I used to be able to go to magnitude 14 and even 15 without breaking a sweat with my WATEC. In the last few years light pollution has
