RE: (meteorobs) computer plotting vs chart manual plot

George,
One of the specs would definitely be the ability to download data to 
another computer for archiving and or printing. So once a file always a 
file. This is one of the areas that I feel you and Marc would need to be 
involved. The development of report format for saving data. I am just 
starting my research and as a full time student and working full time it 
will probably get a little less time than I would like, but maybe I will be 
able to interest some of the guys at Florida Tech Space Science program.
Specs are going to be very important.
Marji

Marji or anyone?

I just want to say, that despite all my negative talk about any device used
to plot meteors by means of any automated method using computer technology
over the pencil and paper method, I am willing to give any such device a
serious testing over several nights.  I will give you my honest
opinion..dot despite being biased, on any such test. I will also tell you what
is troublesome and what is worthwhile and any possible suggestions that may
help to improve a device...but you will have to instruct me on it's usage 
and
keep it very simple...in otherwords...speak very S-L-O-W! If you can't
convince me...essentially a computer illiterate, you might have a hard time
making this puppy fly.

Speaking on the subject of the device, has anyone proposed how the data is
suppose to go from the observer to the whomever gets it? Would this be done
out in the field, at home from a "diskette" or something?...pony express
maybe?
