I don't know.

It is unclear to me from the zone query tools whether B1 would be useful to
me or not. In general, the more points for plate solutions the better,
since we use distortion terms for our moving-object reductions. On the
other hand, A2 is already pretty dense.... I guess I'd like to try a copy
if it does become available, but I've no real clue if it will or not.
