A very tight pair that I have
seen once before with my C8 and then remarked that it was very
difficult. But
this is one of the brighter pairs of this project. Just looked like a
blur in
real time, but post op data stacking of the best 2 dozen frames shows a
split.
measured, poorly, 0.72 sec at 034 deg PA.  |
