Greg,

I was just going to post this event to the group, but you beat me to it.

Jason Davis of Bountiful, Utah owns both B&W and Color MallinCam HYPER PLUS cameras and started the satellite broadcasting of the video feed several years ago from the desert to the west of Salt Lke City. He then travelled to Death Valley and Tocopa Hot Springs and did broadcasts from there. He left his 14" CGE at Tocopa Hot Springs and the Chamber of Commerce is getting a camera to go with it so they can continue hosting local stargazes on a regular basis as the events hosted by Jason were a great tourist attraction.

I plan on joining the sesson tonight and hopefully will be able to assist Jason in looking for targets.

Jack
