Using Tycho-2 CD

Ray Shapp Aug 27, 2002

Hi Group,

Bill said>>>>>>about Tycho-2: yes, Guide has it, and uses it as the database
for the 2.5 million stars in that catalog.<<<<<<<

Does this mean that all 2.5 million Tycho-2 stars are already included
somewhere on the two Guide-8 CDs? If not, please tell me how to "get" them.
I notice the Extras menu allows one to "Get A1.0/A2.0 data" I do have the
USNO Tycho-2 CD.

I searched the archive and the FAQ for specific info (without success) on how
to incorporate the data from the Tycho-2 CD into the map displays.

Thanks for the help.
