I want to thank Michael Fulbright for taking the time to obtain some excellent
data for me.  I am stuck in heavily light polluted Portsmouth VA with no place
to keep my gear.  Even if I could, my time has been too limited to try and use it!  I
commute frequently enough to my home in Summerville SC however, and asked Mike
for his assistance.  I let him borrow my camera on the premise he catch a few
photons for me to practice on.  Michael used his Tak Sky 90 on a NJP mount.  Thanks again Michael!
