Mode of recording: CCD drift-scan ("Winscan 207" software) Device of recording: CCD 7.OBSERVING CONDITIONS: Atmospheric transparency: good. Wind: none at the observatory position. Star image stability: good/fair. Driftscan speed at 0,1s/pixel. Sampling: 1 pixel = 1,2 arcsec. 8. NOTES: By eye inspection of the trace I consider the time resolution of the drift-scan image no better than 5 pixels, ie. about 0,5s. No occultation lasted longer than this duration.
