This path runs through Santa Cruz, so Kirk and I are well positioned to go for this at home. I believe I may still have enough energy to do this one from my carport, before bed. Kirk will also try from home, clouds willing. The path goes too far south of Karl to make it a good bet for missing sleep. For me and Kirk, path makes impossible from PineRidge anyway.

I recorded from the carport, at 2x. Clear skies, got a good recording. Looks like a miss as I watched. Recording had many speckled pixels. I believe I had too high a recording level and should have reduced contrast as I learned to do later, and I'd have probably gotten a cleaner recording. I don't see any evidence of an event. Kirk had a miss from a few miles away. Mine looks to be a miss also. I was not able to use a reference star. I tried two, but their light curves have too many flaws to be usable for purpose, so I did not do a reference star. I'm submitting this as a "miss".
Start: 9:23:20 UT, End=9:26:00

A miss for me for 2003 SB128, Nov. 24 at 2x, from Delaware ave. by the Marine lab. No event that I can see. PyOTE detectability tool reports an event as short as 0.19s would likely be detectable, max predicted was 0.83s.
