I haven't noticed any increase in frequency with the new version. What I can advise: 1. I usually stack several images 2. The problem, most frequently arises...
Peter, I found the root of the problem and I am currently working on solution. The problem apparently arises when you measure a very faint object, while, at...
I found that when I click on a known object in an image and get Speed and Position Angle information, it is slightly different than if I use the Object look up...

Hi Peter and all, the same is for me, and it's good to know that Herbert found the problem... And I've also noticed that faint or very faint sources are much...
Dear Herbert, I use also to stack images. The error of float.... is now very frequent with last astrometrica revision. I can confirm that it appears almost...
Since yesterday (08 Aug 2008 UT), I've been having trouble accessing the MPC Vizier server (CfA, Harvard, USA). Other Vizier servers seem to work okay. Has...

... I have often had a problem with earlier versions (not tried the new one) in crowded fields of not being able to centroid on a very clear but faint image....

Herbert - I'm not sure that the problem you have identified is the cause of what I (& I suspect others) are seeing. I get the divide-by-zero error immediately...
It would seem to me that Astrometrica would need to know which filter was used to make an image to perform the photometry. And I see that the cfg file has a...
... No. The software still need to know if it should take the B, V or R magnitudes from the star catalogue for comparison with your un- filtered images. So if...
... This seems to be another problem. However, this was not reported by any other user, nor did I ever get that error. So it's a bit hard for me to fix that....
... I already started to work on that. There will be a option to manually position a small window to get a centroid, quite silimar to what was done in the DOS...

I could be losing my mind, but... I generated a MPC report with version 4.5.0.372, and the report contained these three lines: K08J35T C2008 08 11.22254722 40...

Thanks, John. Since my role is measurer, not observer, I have a word in to find out the accuracy that can be justified. Nothing has been submitted to MPC yet,...
