There we are ..Failure..
How do I get a lovely BLUE filled in quote?
AND
Is not a Forum such a means for additional inputs??
especially as that very Concept in the past was so helpful..
e.g
i had no idea they had Invented ‘Hidden Lower Case Links’
there were none such back in the day.
but thankfully behind the scenes a helpful well informed member
could be relied upon the quick easy way.Realised I had forgotten to agree with this..
Just surmised..Copy as Highlight and then pasted..
Fingers Crossed..On the Good side.. we must all be grateful that the term ‘Cookies’ is not mentioned.
and the Impact of the Site upon Readers is as good as any Site I see..
As a Scousa and an old Bulletin Boards person [300/75Hertz.. No Kbs or Mbs !]
it terrifies me.. as it seem to demand an Academic Input..
which I left behind in the previous Century.. never having needed it in my Career.Upon reading this discussion earlier..
I decided that I would post an Input on ‘NLCs’.
This I did.
I noted the 4M limit but noticed there was..
No longer ‘Helpful Guidance’ as to Limit for fitting the picture to the Input..
which would have been appropriate for descriptive details.
Possibly that is now not a facility?..
I had no idea where I had seen the Helpful Phrases in the past..
so just posted as was.. so a Tiny copy was shown..I then attempted to post feedback to this discussion..
My first input Bounced with something ‘akin to’ OR ‘to the effect’..
‘No Content Identity’..
After dabbling.. and not being able to find my Input again
Seems that as an ‘Older Reader’..
I had ‘ Not seen’ the Dropdown Box..
as I guess it had not struck me that my input was anything other than
part of this discussion.
The default entry is a Blank..
which I then changed to ‘General Discussion’ or some such.Despite the little Niggles above.. we still should be proud that
we have a First Class Site..
Oh.. and the first class ‘Edge Password Memory’ enables me to access
the Site with merely CLICK/CLICK.stan armstrong
Dominic adequately deals with the Partial Content Download Aspect..
William’s description of his Download Times is entirely expectable..
although it contrasts dramatically with mine.
On successive days since reading his posting.. I have downloaded
at various times the full video file [0.9G] in less than 30 SECONDS.
This Transit Speed is virtually the same as that for other Streaming Services.
My Fibre Link is Cheapo Lowest grade and the Desktop PC is an 11 year old
converted from Windows XP to Win 10. I only use my mobile phone for
Phone Calls so cannot comment on mobile usage.
Sad I know.. but I could not resist the curiosity urge to RETAB and test again.

This input is from my other Desktop which is a more modern Dell.
After switching on and catching up with the News ..I then cautiously
tried several Web-Sites that have been ‘Touchy’ about Security of late..
such as Heavens Above and BT’s own Site..
I use the Password Save Systen in Edge on this PC too and as Microsoft Synchs their Systems..
it was hardly a surprise when This Site came up as smoothly as all the others.
In the meantime..the BAA Timing System is now at one[sic] with Microsoft.. and
so a cheeky good morning from me at 0154 BAA/GMT..
stanAs microsoft is a world wide organisation and the only Time Indicated
on the Browser is Their Time.. possibly change our recorded times of receipt etc to
00:27 which is when i am posting?
stanThe ‘TEAM’ were not to know that Microsoft would coincidentally UPGRADE??
their ‘Edge’ Browser.. With ARI’s [Age related Infirmities] I have been using
A Desktop PC for over 10Years.
Equally BT have changed their Security system to Norton from MCaFee!
One of the features of Edge is a Password Save system.. which I have long used.
This became Somewhat Confused BUT eventually ?Guessed? the user name for ‘Iamsheep’.
Still not sure what then happened.. but all now seems Delightful to look at
and Sleek and Speedy to manipulate.
The Dark Mode at 0019GMT IS FIRST CLASS
stanAge related Infirmities now limit my use of Meade 200 LX3.
Multi-speed Drive-motor and Hand Controller..
Bought New with Astro-Tripod and Shipping Case.
Your thoughts on likely selling price would be appreciated. Thanks

As it happens Dominic.. none of my cameras are Integrated into any of the Systems either.
But I have expressed an interest in a Pi..
Have scaled down the Image to Fit and I have 4frames of video for you too..
if you wish.. as i find they are always enjoyed by younger listeners.. if this Beauty
is to feature in your Talks as the ” One that got away”?
Sorry about the date..it results from overloaded systems.. but it slices off easily..
As for the Brightness of the Fireballl? The Average Value estimated by all 14 observers
listed by the IMO is -11.5..whereas those self assessed as ‘more aware’ is around -14.
I always read the sometimes very personal comments before I even do a Slow Manual Search
of my 24/7 Video of several cameras.. Hence I then look out for any features described..
Of late there have been descriptions of the ‘Long’ delay in the brightness fading
after the Flash.. Obviously an easy feature for me to corroborate as i only run at around 3 to 4 FPS.
Indeed.. Your ‘OTGA’ seemed to be ‘Well Lit’ for some 4seconds plus.
This indeterminate time period in an ‘Integration’ or Peak Value.. which obviously affected the individual awareness..
makes me now suspect All Meteor Estimates with a decimal place.
Thanks forthat William..
As at now 1945BST .. Clear Skies from SE Start to Polaris ..

Summer triangle has been visible for some 30mins..
That ‘Condition’ has a Remedy Grant.. It is called ‘The Astronomers Prayer’. To be uttered upon pulling back the Curtains..I remember well the Day I learnt of this and was sworn to Secrecy.. It was also the day I was later diagnosed with ‘Bells Palsy’.. and Princess Di’s brother got married..
SNAP Peter.. I too moved in 1974 into same house i still live in.. Census returns suggest occupancy average of less than 8years ! Mind you it was a Doldrum time for House Sales and We visited 26 houses before deciding.. A near 180 Skyline of trees settled it for me and Next to village School suited my wife.
Could certainly give a Map Reference of the house garden to any one wanting to research. However..
Front gardens all pebble covered for cars now ..Ownership would be a legal minefield I guess with
complications of Mortgages.. and overtones of Winchcombe.. Certainly if any Researcher wanted further details I would be happy to assist.
A time between the ‘Bay of Pigs’ and the ‘Cuban Missile Crisis’ that I now largely remember as a Blur Alan.
The ‘4 Minute Warning’ was an everyday Threat and I was living in a House on the SW Side of the Stadium.
However, I will never forget one late evening, hearing a very loud noise and rushing out into our small Avenue, to see some Neighbours opposite in their small front Garden.. They told me something had fallen in their garden with a loud noise. With my Army and RAF Service behind me, I slowly moved Geraniums and other plants and found a ‘Steaming Dull Black Rock’ around the size of 1/4 Brick . At that time In my Career, I was in charge of Radiography Training and hence Radiation Danger was prominent in my day to day work. I borrowed a Bamboo Cane and pushed the Rock to the housewall and said I would visit them the next day as possibly something from an Aircraft. As it happens, I also undertook Urgent Field Work and was possibly miles away for the next week or so..hence the incident faded from my immediate concerns. Time to time have thought of describing on NEMETODE Network and had almost got round to mentioning to Alex, so now just a possibility that our two recollections relate to the same event Alan?
Brilliant that that my previous jpg.. which is a 266KB on myDesktop.. has been so well Squosen to a Mere 13.5KB..! And still OK to show Delphinus. As the Orbs were at around 10sec intervals.. thought an earlier one would be useful..Shown below..

Thanks to Andy the name change went well and retested Fine..
Dominics Input is interesting .. as for many months I have found his ‘Obs East’ Sky Outline tallies with my Zenith.. except i have Polaris in my view too.. Now I find another of his Coverages is always in my view too. Mike’s Sunshield limitations suggestion starts to look plausible to me. No longer Alex’s ‘vermin’ BUT now the Lions and Tigers of the skies! Had to wait a longtime as Recorder/PC well-overloaded…[even says ‘No Resources’ at times ] hence Mike’s 0100 got a bit suspect..Eventually saw over half dozen at size > than typical ISS Pass at that altitude.. Then the Antipenultimate Event of the String [Wanted to write that for 60years!] was/were Twins.. of a slightly lesser magnitude…
Shown in the Shot Above.. Hope it help deliberations.. and can go back several months if it helps Dominic. ###### If ADMIN are watching the Site??##### i have tried to Normalise my [NAME] … [To Stan Armstrong].. but am guessing that as ‘THAT’ is the Lynchpin of my Records.. It is a Forbidden Entry? Be that as it may..
Hi Mike…Thought i would confirm your June 6th Sightings.. someof which were certainly of the magnitude order of Venus.. but with the reservation that the objects were actually successively in a more Northerly position.. I will Dig out a Shot later after a Bite to eat.
