    Notes:
    
    Positions obtained using a 4 inch zoom lens with an image intensifier. 
    Really seems to help bring in the background stars and satellites down to 
    mag 10.  No integration of frames so the GPS timestamp is always accurate. 
    If you have a large bandwidth internet connection and want to see what I was 
    looking at in the monitor I have posted some video segments of the above 
    satellites.  These satellites were way to bright to be a good test of the 
    system but you can see the multitude of background stars and various levels 
    of zoom.

    If I was good enough with a stopwatch, binoculars, and star charts I 
    wouldn't need all this expensive equipment....but I need all the help I can 
    get!
