Anthony for my 360MB "USNO sA2.0" catalog I placed its folder in my Guide8
Directory adding the following line to "guide.dat". SA2_PATH=C:\Program
Files\Guide8\Sa20

Check the ProjectPluto B1 page,
http://www.projectpluto.com/update8d.htm#b1_from_hard_drive

You may need to go into "Extras > Toggle User Datasets", scroll to 'USNO B1'
and double click. I checked 'Auto' for A2.0's limiting mag shown as 27.6
but the deepest I can go is ~19mag which is probably the limit of sA2.0.
