6 TIMING & RECORDING:
  Time source: GPS Shelyak TimeBox for adjusting the Lenovo laptop clock; A time correction established in relation do the 1pps TimeBox diode pulses: minus 0.03s (-30 ms).
  Sensor: ZWO ASI 120MM, shutter set for 500ms, image resolution 1024x768 px, gain 50.
  Recording: SHARPCAP v.3.2.6480.0 software.

7 OBSERVING CONDITIONS:
  Atmospheric transparency: good   Wind: none            Temperature: +17 deg C
  Star image stability: good       Minor planet visible: no 

8 ADDITIONAL COMMENTS:
 
The light curve analyze using Tangra software and a careful inspection of the screen replay showed a small drop (22:32:50.44- 22:32:52.93) of the star brightness caused by the asteroid. Finally, no drop longer than 0.5 sec.
The star image was not very stable both for the occulted and a guiding star. 
The D and R times according to the AOTA analysis. 
The observation at the limit of the equipment capacity (combined magnitude 13.5 mag.), not very sure.

  Predicted max. 7.6 sec. duration with 0.6 mag. drop.
  Distance from center line : 73 km in 163° direction, inside the predicted path.
  Local * conditions (Alt,Az): 40°, @167°
  Moon: below the horizon
  Sun altitude: -15°
