I requested a star chart for the object ASAS J202135 +1525.6 (HD 355501) to the services of aavso!
processed the images and tried to upload the file, with no success. the WebObs FrontEnd replied that the starId is not recognized. but not only do i have a AUID on AAVSO/vsx as ooo-BLJ-603, a chart on Light curve generator and a photometry table.
can anyone shed some light on this event.
I can trow 1610 values to the trash can, but ....
Best regards
If someone can answer this i would be gratefull

one single character changes everything!
So ashamed that im hidding myself
The space before th "+" sign! ;)
Don't worry, I spent several minutes (and several tries) the other day with an eta Car file that had an empty line at the bottom that I had not seen (well, it was empty... haha).
it happens to everyone!
Cheers,
Sebastian
just a darn # before the header of the columns!
it's part of the learning curve!
What I like is that you found the problem, and fixed it - and it wasn't a bug in our system. Yay! Good luck, and keep submitting data to the AAVSO.

I will some
Thank you Arne
I will some hundreds more are waiting, i was trying to rebuild the full curve but made some mistake somewhere!
So now i have to learn the transformations coeficients for sloan g' r' i' filters to johnson magnitudes.

Hi Joao,
The general transformations that we use when converting APASS data to Rc/Ic are from Jester, et al. 2005 (
2005AJ....130..873J ). You can also visit the SDSS page to see other transformations:
http://www.sdss3.org/dr10/algorithms/sdssUBVRITransform.php
We have an internal set of equations for APASS, developed by Ulisse Munari, that we will be using in the near future. They do a little better job for the specific filters/bandpass that we have.
Arne
Im already
Thank you Arne
Im already following your Clue. quite some labour the next months to improve my knowledge on Photometry!
what a fun endeavour.
Best Regards
