point source



Ok, I've tried sending this message twice before with the image attached
but it didn't get through.  This time I will follow Pat's lead and put the
gif on the web at

The original message follows:

Hello everybody,

As a follow up to the discussion about the elongation of the point source
seen in Pat's 40ks image, I went back to the 2 previous epochs and the Feb
50ks run earlier this year that was set up to match the first 2 epochs.  
I have attached a screen capture of ds9 comparing the point source from
the three epochs.  The brightness is on a log scale.  I see no significant
N-S elongation (N is up).  If anything, the slight elongation seen (NE-SW)
is in the direction of readout.
