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

Re: Uploading Light Curves

Re: Uploading Light Curves
Steve: I know this is something that Dave Herald has been pushing for, and to date I haven't looked into it much. Wish I could help on the procedure, but I don't know it. However.... ever since

Great to see the group. I learned a few things that will be useful going forward. I loaded Skype onto my iPad for a better experience. Thanks, Rick Bria
