Re: Observing Planner to work with Guide?

msdeprest Jun 25, 2011

Thomas,
Thank you for posting this thread, I have been looking for something just like this for some time now. I do most of my observing in a climate that afford very few really great nights and one comes along I like to make the most of it. So, I plan my observing sessions carefully and like the detailed charts that can be produced and printed by Guide 8.0. Cambridge Press is offering your version 3.0 is this an English version?
Thank You

Then you can insert it into an observing plan or a project, create a new log entry for this object or have it displayed on a chart (E&T does charting too, but with emphasis on perceptibility - a quite unique approach in astro software).
