> Do any SeeSat subscribers have any tips on how to observe these elusive > events? I've never been successful either. But one thing you might try is to use a polarizing filter. Just rotate for maximum dark sky. This only helps if the satellite is very roughly 90 degrees from the sun. If I try again I will probably locate the exact altitude and azimuth the night before - find a spot to stand in the yard with the roof of a house or tree to sight along to find the exact spot referenced by the stars at night. - George Roberts http://gr5.org ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Subscribe/Unsubscribe info, Frequently Asked Questions, SeeSat-L archive: http://www.satobs.org/seesat/seesatindex.html
