Raw .avi video of the double occultation of TYC 1814-01633-1 by (10430) Martschmidt from Cabrillo College Observatory by Richard Nolthenius. I used a Watec 910hx videocam on a Celestron 8SE telescope, Watec integration setting = 2x, Gamma=1.0, Gain=41 (max). Target is lower middle of frame, about half way between the two bright stars (upper left and lower right). Star will disappear twice at 4:49:54 UT in rapid succession. Webpage for details is here: https://www.dr-ricknolthenius.com/eve... . This website describes the data and evidence for the interpretation of the event as due to a new binary asteroid. Unfortunately, there are no known other observers for this particular event. Announcement will follow in the CBET archives.
