If you want to time flashes for a fast flasher, or allow detection of synodic effects during a pass, or most common: avoid interrupting a night's session by reading out the memories and write it down, you should go for 50-200 memories. I found one with 100 memories in a national hobby shop some five years ago. It is still very accurate at less than 0.1 s/day and linearly, so I don't have to check the time more than once a day. It reads out to 0.01 s, and shows both lap time and cumulative time for each split, which reduces undetected readout errors. Also important is that hitting STOP or RESET by mistake is not easy. At about $30 at that time in Sweden, I would say cost shouldn't be an issue anywhere. /Björn ----------------------------------------------------------------- Unsubscribe from SeeSat-L by sending a message with 'unsubscribe' in the SUBJECT to SeeSat-L-request@lists.satellite.eu.org http://www2.satellite.eu.org/seesat/seesatindex.html
