All-File search, lunar transit, 0.25 degree tolerance. If you want transits that are reasonably close to your location, just loosen up the tolerance to a few degrees. (SkyMap allows a tolerance of up to 5 degrees). It won't show you the ground track of the transit, of course, but it will at least clue you in when something will be close. --Rob ----------------------------------------------------------------- Unsubscribe from SeeSat-L by sending a message with 'unsubscribe' in the SUBJECT to SeeSat-L-request@lists.satellite.eu.org http://www.satellite.eu.org/seesat/seesatindex.html
