Hello Rick, Interesting. You asked me to write an article about a year ago, which I did. I have not been asked again since. I'd be happy to write some articles if they would be published. Examples: 1. On converting a stock Meade DSI Pro CCD camera to a more serious instrument. 2. CCD Photometry. 3. Infrared Photometry with an SSP-4. 4. Possibly Gene Lucas and I could expand on the upcoming show-and-tell on the theta Orionis eclipse. 5. JH Band photometry of delta Orionis (right most star in Orion's belt). 6. Strange out-of-eclipse variations of epsilon Aurigae. 7. Getting started with real science. 8. Using Meade AutoStar for auto tracking, imaging, image processing and photometry. Could be 4 articles. Lot's of possibilities, but you need to ask. Jeff At 17:39 -0700 12/27/06, Rick Tejera wrote: >Peter, > >Nothing would please me more than to have club members write article for the >NL.
