Re: FN Vir?

For DS23 I took everything in my log where the *center* of the image was 
between 6 and 8 hr.  This was based on the log book entry which was made 
from looking at an image and writing down what DS9 thought was the 
center.  This can be another degree off.  So DS23 could extend 3 degrees 
either side of the above band.  Someone can plot it and put up exactly what 
is covered.

For the whole engineering data set, I have about 85% of the full band at +7 
degrees.
