OK rank, in Cancer in the west. I can't try since it's too close to a better event up the coast (unless fog closes in?)

Alt=25, Az=278 in Cancer.

Tough; only 0.2s duration. Will have to set at 2x to have a shot with enough points inside the event, I believe. 4x will only give 2.5 points inside the event.
