Lunar Graze of ZC 3325 -28th November

The ZC cattledog is a pain as most (all?) planetarium programs don't know it. Once-upon-a-time I had a spreadsheet that crossreferenced ZC, SAO, HIP, HD, XZ, TYC and a few others BUT I can't find it now. I'll keep looking. If I find it, I'll let you know.

In the meantime, if you don't have it already, I'd suggest you download and install winOccult by Dave Herald...

There is heaps to download in addition to the program itself, over 100Mb! But IMHO "it's a MUST HAVE".

It will handle any cattledog you care to mention. You can run your own predictions for your site or 100 sites and heaps of other stuff tailored for the occultation observer as DaveH is himself.
