This is a decent event, but short, only 0.3s. Will require short integration. 4x and no more, I suggest. I plan to go to Canham Rd in Scotts Valley
Alt=59, Az = 186 in Hydra

I did indeed set up at Canham Rd, at the Glenwood Open Space parking lot, in the very center of it. Skies were clear, calm, and very dark. I observed at 2x, used median filtering in PyMovie. Conditions were excellent, to allow a 12.4 star to be gotten with 2x and such clean light curves. Short, at 0.24s, but 5.8 sigma false positive test success.
