Hi Rob and the rest of you listers, Thanks so much for taking the time to address my comments personally. Before the misconception goes any further, I want to make sure that no one thinks that my remarks were meant to disparage Heavens Above. My satellite watching commenced with a failed attempt to view Sputnik as a boy, and after decades of observing, it wasn't until I found H-A that I ever knew what I was watching pass overhead, or even when and where to look. I first discovered H-A when my daughter polished a mirror for the very first Starshine. It was H-A that introduced me to Iridium Flares, and despite having downloaded and installed Iridflar, I still consult H-A in a pinch. Heck, I still use H-A for a quick look at all the brighter LEO's. You can't beat the convenience. To those of you that pointed out that you can select from the database to view passes at > 5.0, yes I knew this, and had been using it for the NOSS opportunities, until installing Quicksat. It took a long time for me to even begin to outgrow H-A, and I wanted to make sure that everyone knew how much I appreciated Chris's fantastic effort.
