GENERAL COMMENT BY mcotter: Mon Dec 07 02:28:29 GMT 2020
Adjusted occulter several times over the course of the day for optimal position. Did not run Calibration Sequence as there appeared to be a possible CME and further notable activity taking place. Beautiful clear skies all day! Good observations!
