I am just starting (0156 UT) to shoot and plan to stay on it for 4
hours or a bit more. It looks about as bright as the 14.7 star  to

data analysis here - Sometime this weekend, Y2K permitting. 

I downloaded the AVE program and it has PDM in it - it works very
nicely - check prior VS Net chat postings for the URL.
