Hi, I have the little Star NX01 GPS with the week rollover issue. Chris Carson, in Canada, says on his website, to send it back to Winnipeg with US15 plus US10 shipping for an update. I am in the Dominican Republic so sending things in and out is more complicated than for US folks. My system is a Losmandy G11 base with Gemini 1 Level 4 Version 1.05 It would be nice if Somebody could tell me how to do this without sending the GPS back to the factory. I'm a bit old, 73, but can figure out a fair amount of these modern things so if somebody could guide me it would be appreciated. Best Regards John Van Allen Questar 3.5, Questar 7, Televue 85, Televue NP127 and AT72ED

Saturn and Moon occultation/conjunction

I will be hosting an observing session for underprivileged children here in the Dominican Republic on the evening of Sunday August the 31st. They are primarily interested in just seeing the moon but I didn´t realize these other events were happening as well. I´m at Lat 18.4N by 69.9W so I wonder how the planets will look. Regards John
