I use the GSC from Deepsky 2000. CdC is designed to use that. It seems to be very slow, so I'm going to try the source at <ftp://cdsarc.u-strasbg.fr/cats/I/255/>. The other sources listed at help>catalogs seem to be no longer available. There are also sources of USNO-A2 listed there, but I don't know if they are current. -John
