Subject: Guiding - Observing Campaign on the Secondary Eclipse of zeta Aurigae


I have a few days of clear skies this weekend and thought I would try participating in an AAVSO campaign.  The campaign is described here:


http://www.citizensky.org/forum/mini-observing-campaign-secondary-eclipse-zeta-aurigae


This requires periodically collecting accurate photometry of the star over the next 30 days.  Has anyone done this with Astro-IIDC and a DMK21BF04 camera.  I assume I will need guiding and plan to use a DSI II with PHP for that.


All suggestions and comments greatly appreciated.
