 Hello Dave, all,

 I was at the 2.3m "Bok" telescope for this event at 12 images/sec 
(clear filter), and we are anayzing our data right now. I would be 
definitively interested to compare with near IR data! 

 I put on my site some results, regularly updated:

(bottom of page), with some predictions of what should have been 
observed at various sites, including KP 

Cheers,

Bruno

David,
 
I was reading your website and wondered if you would like to have the 
information about our Kitt Peak observations of the March 18 Pluto 
occultation. We observed at McMath-Pierce Facility, using its Main
(1.5 m) and East Auxiliary (0.9 m) telescopes, and also at the Visitor 
Center 20-inch Richey. We observed in Ks-band at the East Auxiliary, 
H-band at the Main, and R-band at the Visitor Center. All integrations 
were 3 seconds. The time periods covered were all 10:30 to 11:10 UT. 
We saw the occultation at all three telescopes. The members of our 
team are myself, Pedro Sada, Laddawan Miko, Claude Plymate and Flynn 
Haase.
 
Best regards,
Don
