8.ADDITIONAL COMMENTS:
        Target star UCAC2 3UC251-027315, +12.9mag, 67deg Elevation.
        Faintest object visible on live video fields (It=320ms) was star 3UC251-027350, +13.8mag.

        Only Clear glass filter (Astronomik) for CCD protection was used.
        
        Video evaluation accomplished with VirtualDub1.9.7, AviSynth2.5 and Limovie0.9.29b.

        Predicted event time was 18:59:25 UTC for my observing position.
        Predicted maximum duration was 1.6 seconds.
        Position was 142km from central line in southeast direction.
        between path and 1-sigma line with a probability of 1.3%.
        No occultation detected (It=320ms).
