>From all indications--visuals from Hilo, satellite loops, and NOAA
solar radiation plots, yesterday's sky was not observeable, at least
with MKIII.  CHIP may have been able to plow thru the cirrus and
DPMON may have been marginal.  Will still put up a blue dot on
calendar as no observer was at site.
