Hello, I believe that I may have imaged 2003 UB313 - please see Files section (UB313 file). Using SkyTools RealTime add-on, I used GoTo based on the "Current...

Hello, Marc & Philippe Thank you for your complements and a big thank you to Philippe for his detective work! I went away for the weekend to grab some more...
I seem to recall that it used to be possible to import the monthly "In the Eyepiece" lists from Greg's website into SkyTools 1.X. Did this function go away or...
I looked through the archieves to see if anyone has had the same problem I do. I have windows XP service pack 2, NIS 2005 and unless I turn off NIS Internet...
Greetings: The short answer...nope! At least I never found a solution. The longer answer...I eventually replaced NIS with a variety of programs such as Zone...
This should be easy for all you ST2 experts. Somehow I have deleted M40 from my Messier observing list and cannot add it back. I have tried using the...
Greetings: "Thanks Fred. Unfortunately I tried that and the Messier list is not included?" Argh, I was afraid of that. There's a separate listing for the...
Greetings: Perhaps another way (rather than looking through the CD-ROM) would be to search for HD 238107 (M40's "alias") and then adding it to the Messier...
Hi guys, Newbie here. I just went through this same exercise with SkyTools 2. M40 was never in the list because it's not a "real" Messier object. It's a double...
Hi, ... That is probably the easiest. But if you want to replace the original Messier catalog just use the Import tab on the Data Manager and get from our web...
I've been constructing an observing list for the June 2005 Deep Sky Wonders column from S&T. (OK, I'm a couple of months behind...) Sue French included the...
Hi Eric, ... If you are looking for the 1.x version of the list it's here: http://www.skyhound.com/dl/skyhound.oxp Look for the ST2 version using the Import...
Hi Bill, ... I displayed a DSS image of that location and sure enough there is a double star there coincident with GSC 03781-0327. SkyTools 2 uses the CCDM...
Greetings: Greg, if you can do something to clean up double star designation confusion, I'll buy ST3 as soon as you announce you're taking orders! Fred Kiesche...
Hi Fred, ... Oh, I'm doing more than that... I spent six months of last year working on the WDS catalog. For every WDS star pair that is separated by more...
Sorry that I've been lax on posting my observing lists. I've got a set of Sky and Telescope based lists for both Deep Sky Wonders and Targets. You can find...
Hi Steve, Had the same problem as Fred with Norton. Dumped it about 2 years ago. I did two things in rapid succession. 1. Switched from IE to Mozilla Firefox...
HI Gang: Has anyone put together a list based on this book (Dave Eicher's _The Universe from Your Backyard_)? Peace, Rod Mollise Author of _Choosing and Using...
