Success at last.
Bill and Tom thanks for your help, now I am able to view FITS files
downloaded from the Skyview site.
Bill, I tried the address you gave me for the exe file but I coudn't get
a response so I went to the NRAO Home Page and searched around until I
found one. The address of that file is:
ftp://ftps.cv.nrao.edu/fits/os-support/ms-windows/fitsview/win16/
In an e-mail, I was told that the data from stdatu.stsci.edu/dss/ has
problems with coordinates but image quality was good. How inaccurate
are they? Should I use the Skyview site knowing its images are poor in
comparison but coordinates OK. I guess it depends on what I want to use
the data for.
Thanks again guys.
Gordon
