Hello All,
Christina LeGrand here. With the weather getting warmer, I hear the call of the telescope to get back out there. What have you all found to be the best sort sequence for presenting objects on an observing list? I typically sort on "Best" or "Transit"; but invariably, I miss out on some early or late objects. So I have been trying to sort on "Rise" and maybe "Best" within that. Or "End". Or ... ?
Has anyone found a sort sequence they really like, that helps them see the most objects during a session? Thanks for any ideas - I will be getting the scope out tomorrow night to give it a whirl.
Thank you for any thoughts,
Christina LeGrand
