Alex,
The topic interests me and I would be happy to try and work with you on
this though my time is limited. If you like we could set up a protocol and
collect some data.
I posted these results some time ago. These are Hc-Ho values for a series
of star, sun and planet shots with AP being my GPS Lat and Long all under
excellent conditions standing on land, no averaging, no low altitude shots,
razor sharp horizon etc.
