... Hello Tony, I was wondering how you succeeded in capturing Kiwi's output directly into your PC. I was thinking of putting together such a setup for our ...
I was very successful in recording a graze last evening from San Jose, California (five peaks plus a flash), and very thankful that I had the Kiwi OSD in use,...
Hi Walt, Good to hear you had a success! ... Just checking that you were reading the number 'before' the "M" and not the number after the "M" Walt? The number...
Thanks for the clarification, Geoff. The answer, of course, is that I was reading the number after the M, not the one before. Now that I understand the...
... That's better Walt - gosh those height values are highly correlated, showing you had very good GPS reception. The reason I include the "geoidal separation"...
Thanks for the update ... Dave Gault isn't the only one playing with new toys on this event. I have just purchased a clone of the Mintron camera (GSTAR-EX)...
... Hi Steve, Just a thought - because you already had the Garmin 16 GPS (before you obtained a KIWI OSD), the 1PPS output pulse length may be the default of ...
I have created a movie of the Antares R from 14th. It can be found here... http://us.share.geocities.com/dave4gee/antares_r_clip.mpg Regards DaveGault ...
Gerhard, many thanks for posting this tip about Huffyuv and cpature with VirtualDub. I bought an inexpensive ADS Instant TV USB capture device and it works...
I'm getting in on this discussion at a late date, but looking at the video, there appears to be a clear step increase in brightness on the reappearance. I...
To my eye there is no step, but why not run Limovie? That should give a clear answer. It seems unlikely (to me) that the thin clouds are enough to interfere....
When I look at the video, I see first no star and a 'caret' symbol pointing to where the star will appear. Then at 15 41 57, a star appears at partial...
G'day Walt and Tony, I have been flat out like a lizard drinking preparing for the Pluto/P2 event next month and have been unable to devote time to this event....
... I agree with Tony, a quick look at DaveG's video http://us.share.geocities.com/dave4gee/antares_r_clip.mpg I would make the times as: 15:41:57.092 =...
... Let the "timekeeper" try his hand at some Astronomy! DaveG, I used Occult to view this occultation, and from Sydney it was a 'total occultation' and not a...
... I looked at the Occult Moon Map the wrong way ;-) The companion would need to be "West" of Antares for a "reappearance" and looking up this reference: ...
Did you calculate that 1 arcsec/1.96 sec for this particular location or are you using an average number? The Moon's apparent motion relative to the stars...
Tony, Walt, Geoff and others, It seems I have taken 'things' for granted and assumed it was common knowledge that Antares was a double star. So appologies all...
I was clouded out for the event, but I note that the moon has just been up to 81 degrees elevation and it rose 5 degrees further south along the horizon than...
... Thanks Dave - actually I ended up learning quite a bit, as I fumbled around to get an answer. I had not realised that WinOccult makes it so easy to...
Hello All, Rather late getting into this one, had other distractions. I observed the occultation from Mt John on the 60 cm aided by, or more correctly as...
Nice work Michael. The eye is a wonderful photometer, but the graphs capture all the detail! Tony George Umatilla, Oregon ... From: kiwiosd@yahoogroups.com...
Yesterday I commented that I saw no step, but that was just due to lack of patience. I am temporarily limited to dialup, and though I waited for about a...
Michael, you are amazing, I whish I had known as I would have posted you the full res. PAL video. When making the .mpg clip I had not considered how the ...
... http://spiff.rit.edu/richmond/occult/antares_may14_2006/antares_may14_2006.html Many thanks for the detailed analysis Michael, just one slight correction...
... and end ... I do not dispute the fact that the original video was recorded at PAL rate of 25 frames per second. However, the tool I used to break the...
