Transit tracking on 3c273 (el*=76) and CenA (27)
Summary
During rather poor transmission (tau_cso=0.19), transit tracking was done
on 3c273 and CenA (elevation at transit = 76 and
27 degrees, respectively) :
The seeing was about 0.9" during the former and 0.5" during the latter.
No obvous step is seen at transit in the former, and a 6" sharp step is
seen in the latter, implying a step size at the horizon of 6.7". This is
to be compared with ~7.5" seen on
01 May 2001.
