If you can wait a little while, this will be easy (I hope) .  UCAC 4 will be released soon and, besides fixing all the ills of UCAC 3 and providing bright stars by merging Hipparchos/Tycho, it will contain five-color APASS photometry.  APASS is not quite complete and my understanding is that UCAC4 will be released as soon as it is.
 
Bill: I hope you're planning to support UCAC 4.

Hi,

I am wondering if there is a way to show APASS (AAVSO Photometric All-Sky Survey) data within Guide9.

I am particularly interested in just a few target fields. I see I can download APASS data in html or csv format from the AAVSO APASS web page:
http://www.aavso.org/download-apass-data

I am using it to make comparison charts for recently discovered variables.

John
