I have a long standing, developing interest in minor planet work, both in discovery and occultations, as well as supernova searches. My contributions to the above so far have been on a mostly academic level, while I try to both gear up and do some learning to support them. I need a better camera for any serious nova and minor planet searches, as my current ones are not cooled and are low bit depth.

Location: Brisbane, QLD (Soon to be Canberra)
Type of Program: Asteroid Occultations
Number of observations per year: ~4 so far this year (all negative or failure to observe)
Observations submitted to: IOTA
How many years interested in astronomy: 25
Achievements: Still learning
Scope Used: 12" LX200-ACF, WO Megrez 72 as wide angle finder
Mount Used: CGE
Camera (if applicable) used: DMK 21UA04, DMK 41AU02
