Hi Peter,

Assuming that the weather agrees, and I'm able to get out to observe the occultation, I'd love to provide another measurement. I'm relatively new to estimating magnitudes visually, but I figure if I can spend some time in the region of the occultation before hand, i'll be able to help out. I have one issue however.. what is the best way to time the occultation by WWV? It may be a newbie question.. so please excuse. I'm an AAVSO wannabe, so this may help prime me to head in that direction. I may pick up a stopwatch to time the length of the occultation. What do you suggest? I want to make sure that my info is as accurate as possible.

Appreciate your time and efforts.. great PDF document. Very helpful.
