Where Is SQM? (Answer: Read On)

Under observations, would it be possible to add a box for SQM (magnitudes / sq. arcsec.)? This is ideally in addition to limiting magnitude.

The benefit for observers with a sky quality meter is that an SQM report is easy and objective. If both SQM and limiting magnitude are recorded, then the results can later be correlated to guide expectations on object visibility on under particular conditions.

    Hey Andrew, this feature was added in sky safari 6. See screen shot below.
