Comments: Imaged Saturn March 30th 2020 targeting a CM transit of the 2010 GWS AV. Seeing was variable but have quite reasonable 685nm IR data and even some of the RGB data was nice. The AV is only resolved in the 685nm IR data. Have a very large volume of data from this session, received the hstjupiter email from Andy and note the spot he mentions is in several of my data sets. This session was from 18:44 UTC through 19:58 UTC. I measure the AV to be at approx Lat+43 L3 160.2 I measure the bright polar spot to be at approx Lat+74.7 L3 220
