Remarks:
Hello,
   I planned on two hours teff but it got rather chilly after 1.5 hours
and I had to call it quits.

The LMs were identical for that second hour I only got half way through
so I record it here as a 1.5 hour Teff interval. I hope this is
acceptable since the meteor count was low.

Clear skies to you all.
