Default Amateur NEO Search programs

Hi

I am interested in hearing from people on this newsgroup who are or were
actively involved in Near Earth Object (NEO) search projects.

I would like to know more about the planning, the observing runs & the
processing of images, etc. - basically the hands-on info on the whole
process of how it is done in amateur circles nowadays. I am aware of
professional projects like NEAT and LINEAR.

Please reply to this newsgroup, after which we can make arrangements to
communicate via email.

Regards
Victor

Thanks for the link, Bill. Yes, I guess that is the best resource
currently - very technical and detailed. For starters, I should work my
way through the archive.
