I agree. www.satobs.org contains a wealth of practical information for the aspiring newbie sat observer. When I started serious sat observations as a newbie 4 years ago, I found almost all I needed to know there. Comments from people like Greg and Ted and Pierre then helped me further on the learning curve. For example, start here: http://www.satobs.org/position/posn_intro.html ...and continue: http://www.satobs.org/position/obs_prep.html ..and: http://www.satobs.org/position/posn_measure.html There are pages on the website about PPAS observations (flash observations) as well. - Marco ----- Dr Marco Langbroek - SatTrackCam Leiden, the Netherlands. e-mail: sattrackcam@wanadoo.nl Cospar 4353 (Leiden): 52.15412 N, 4.49081 E (WGS84), +0 m ASL Cospar 4354 (De Wilck): 52.11685 N, 4.56016 E (WGS84), -2 m ASL SatTrackCam: http://home.wanadoo.nl/marco.langbroek/satcam.html Station (b)log: http://sattrackcam.blogspot.com ----- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Subscribe/Unsubscribe info, Frequently Asked Questions, SeeSat-L archive: http://www.satobs.org/seesat/seesatindex.html
