The set numbers we know so far are 7310, 7311, 7312, 7313, 7314, 7315, 7316, and 7317 -- the smallest being 7310 and (...)

That's so cool! I was having real brainaches trying to work out the co-ordinates I wanted to set my camera up to use, and this makes it fairly simple. Dan (24 years ago, 27-Oct-00, to lugnet.build, lugnet.town, lugnet.cad)
