Lunar occultation prediction files/Grid at geo mode

Oliver Kloes Nov 6, 2000

Hi Masaki,

it is difficult to tell which cities are best because observers are spread
all over europe.
I calculate occultations by using OCCULT or LOW and for a preview I type the
data into GUIDE.
Best for GUIDE would be an exe-file which could transform the occultation
data calculated by OCCULT or LOW into an etb-file. But I don' t know if this
is possible.
And this would be a great feature for grazing occultations, because GUIDE
has a better map at "geo mode" for searching observing sites than OCCULT.
(LOW shows Long. and Lat. values of the path of grazing occultations only).

By the way...

Bill,
it would be great if I can turn the "grid" at "star mode" off and at "geo
mode" on. The grid at geo mode helps for searching the places of grazing
occultations. But everytime I enter "geo mode" I have to turn "grids"
manually on because I have "grid" turned off at "star mode". Maybe you can
seperate the option for both modes. Thanks!!

Clear skies,
Oliver
