When timing satellites, I found this wonderful *free* software that I use on my laptop. I've used it to time flashes. It allows you to capture times with a single key or mouse click and you can add a comment simply by typing it before the next timing. It's pretty easy to add text to an older timing also. The data can then easily be pulled into excel or whatever. The worst thing about it is that you always have to tell it to do 10ms resolution when you restart it. The best thing is that instead of storing just 10 or 50 times it can store thousands. Like a stopwatch you don't need to have your eyes leave the satellite - just one finger on the mouse-clicker or the assigned time capture key. The software is called: SnapTimePro And it is free at multiple places including the author's website: http://www.measureandconvert.com/prod01.htm - George Roberts ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Subscribe/Unsubscribe info, Frequently Asked Questions, SeeSat-L archive: http://www.satobs.org/seesat/seesatindex.html
