Re: [guide-user] 2012 LZ1 mag errros

Hi Larry,

are you downloading and adding the file manually?
I do an online update with the provided internal link every time I go observing, till now never hand any problems finding any asteroid. I do have a 24" Cassegrain to observe with, so I'm up for the fainter one's.
It doesn't seem to do any difference wether I start Guide9 with wine under Linux or windows.

That's what Ben did. But he has trouble getting it displayed with a magnitude limit of 13.9 which is what's estimated for this asteroid. It has nothing to do with finding it anyway.
