Comments: Imaged Jupiter July 30th in good seeing, have very good depth of resolved detail from pole to pole and limb to limb. Again have framed the session to provide two Ch4 data sets centered one hour apart in support of Glenn Orton's run with Subaru. I believe this was his final night of the run. I note a prominent red oval on the edge of the NPR. Many tiny dark spots are seen across the NTB and NNTB. Extremely intricate structure is resolved at all wavelengths through the NEB. Three dark features associated with festoons are spaced along the Southern edge of the NEB. Quite intricate detail is resolved in a thin band across the Southern edge of the SEB from the GRS back to the F limb. Oval BA is well seen and from the latest BAA report and map, the 1st Ch4 nicely resolves DS6. All wavelengths very well resolves AWO in the STZ along with the line of three white ovals, A3, A2 & A1 in the SSTB. The 2nd Ch4 also has the white oval A4 trailing the previously mentioned formation of white ovals in the SSTB. The two Ch4 data sets well resolve at least three of the recently discovered L3 moving, waves in the EZ.
