As an addendum-- I do not have a VPHOT account so the data will need to be sent to my email account.

Thanks!

Are there any estimates on when I will start getting data from this request?

I realized when I looked at the data I received that I saw that the declination was wrong-- it should be "+27:55:55.5" and not "-27:55:55.5." The coordinate name has it listed correctly so I must have changed the sign when I filled out the target portion of the request.

Sorry about that--

Thanks,

Tom Rutherford (RTH)
