I don't know that it would be pretty easy, but easier.
You've got a pretty new 15" obsession, right? I suspect that it will
be pretty equivalent to my 16" with its less than new coatings. And
Sentinel on a good night is better than Vekol on a fair night.
Bring the chart and give it a shot. Finding the exact spot in the
field is critical.
