    Method: Canon Digital Ixus 400 + ASTRORECORD astrometric software.
    Camera at manual mode, "10 second" (= 10.7 second) exposure, wide field
    f2.8/7.41 mm.
    
    What these numbers mean:

    A 2nd set of visual position determinations on 07-027C in addition to the one 
    earlier reported, plus regular camera obs on 97-064A & 91-017A.
    
    I lost two visual positions on the A component (07-027A) due to an error while 
    trying to read out the lap time memory. I clearly need some practise in 
    operating this stopwatch.
    
    Nice clear sky. After the satellites I imaged comet 17P/Holmes.
