Thanks to Leo And Tony for your information, and many thanks Tony
for the Melbourne predictions. I will deffinitely follow these and check
sightings.
Just to give you a few details about myself,
I am 50 (odd) years of age, and have been interested in satellites since
Oscar5
and 6 amateur satellites. I was a command station for Oscar 6, and remain a
current amateur radio operator (but not so active), call sign (VK3BGX).
I work (and stay) in Melbourne normally for 5 days and then when off duty
reside
90km to the east on a hobby farm (home) for the next 5 days (shift worker
in TV
industry).
The farm naturally is ideal for viewing visible passes, but I also try my
best whilst
in Melbourne.
I normally receive your Emails at the local library near the farm, but
today,
1st Feb, I was keen to get a response to my ISS question so have logged on
via my employers Email, (which is frowned upon). So I will drop this
address off,
and pick up any further comments with all the other stuff when home on the
farm.
Thanks again Tony & Leo
All the best
Regards
John Nott
