Discussion:
The circle above is plotted at the expected 141 km diameter of Adeona. With no positive chords we cannot say where the actual path was, so the circle has been plotted on the predicted path.

(NTSC) camera, "Supercircuits PC164C-EX2". Recorded with Canon ZR60 #S12. Misses at surrounding stations imply that this was also probably a miss. But analysis with Tangra or other tools is needed to be sure; the predicted mag. drop was 0.7. .avi file uploaded to IOTA Dropbox folder. _______________________________ Observer David and Joan Dunham Location Stuart's Well, NT, Australia Longitude +133:25 Latitude -24:17 Altitude 506 m Datum WGS84 Telescope other - specify below Aperture 25 cm Seeing Steady Clear Camera Type Watec 120N+ NTSC/EIA Camera Delay Timing GPS - time inserted Video, photo or photoelectric Missed Comments: attended station using reflector at prime focus, a J.
