[Aavso-photometry] Re:HD80606 Transit Opportunity

Hello

I wanted to share my experience from last night, so that other observers have 
an idea where to start their time series.  I used 120 second exposures, 10 
inch scope, ST10MXE camera, unbinned, V filter, Max pixel reading about 30,000, 
temp -20C, sn of 1700 to 2000, Aperture for PT of 12 pixel radius, 5 pixel 
radius separation and 5 pixel radius sky annulus--these last two are dictated by 
the separation of the two stars.  I was getting FWHM's of 3-5 arc secs.  There 
was some high thin cirrus.  There was a nearly full moon.  

Hope this helps other observers tonight and tomorrow night.

Clear Skies
Gary
