---------------------------------------------------------------
REMARKS:
1. The 5 minute break is accumulated time spent stretching and 
warding off pesky critters.
2. 5% obstruction by bushes and olive tree.
3. Meteor #5 traveled about 100o and the mag varied from 1-2
because it looked like it was skipping.
