First off, you must admit, Alvin's legacy for observing guides is unequaled!


Before I create it myself, does anyone have Alvin Huey's amazing Galaxy Trios object list in a CSV, XLS, MegaStar, SkyMap Pro, Skytools 3, Sky Safari Pro, or almost any other format?

I have observed quite a few (ok ok, some) and want to mark them off as well as plan working through more. Now that I have the Argo and a 56cm scope, I need more than my hard copy to plan. And Copy/Pasting PDF list requires quite a bit of manual editing to make into a CSV.

Any other links to A.V.'s observing guides as lists for popular observation planning software, or simple CSV/XLS format text files welcome.
Thank you for reading...

Sorry, can't help you there. But if you ever get or create it, would you mind sharing it with me/us? Many thanks in advance!

I suspect that if anyone had them, it would be Alvin!
