NOTES:
--------
(1) As perfect a night as can be - seeing about 8 arc sec, transparency
good and seemed to be a darker than usual sky - possibly not so
much high altitude pollution reflecting the city sky glow.
(2) DSP 13 #18583 pretty faint.
(3) DSCS 3-2 #16116 did a bright flash to about 5th magnitude, otherwise pretty
faint most of the time
(4) UFO-7 #23967 not seen - predicted to be about mag +14.5 but suspect
fainter - poor evening phase angle as west of meridian.
(5) As I have now observed the vast majority of faint geosats over my
location I propose to change the optical system from narrow angle
of 2 x 1.5 degrees to about 7.7 x 5.7 degrees which is more
suitable for leo sats than geosats (geosats have too many objects
in the field of view which is a real pain to measure and identify)
but I cant go as deep as the narrow field since its a smaller
aperture lens ( 48mm as opposed to 102mm)so loose about a magnitude.
Cheers
Greg
