BUG: use `radius` rather than `diameter` in query examples
The 'diameter=Angle(cone_search_radius * 2 * u.arcsec)'
will lead to a crash in code below, which appears related that the passed **kwargs may not be used in service I am reaching out too.
import pyvo as vo
from astropy.coordinates import SkyCoord
import numpy as np
from astropy.coordinates import Angle
from astropy import units as u
cone_search_services = vo.regsearch(servicetype='conesearch')
service = cone_search_services[458]
cone_search_radius = 3
coordinates = SkyCoord(233.319218, 48.119651, unit="deg")
table = service.search(pos=coordinates, diameter=Angle(cone_search_radius * 2 * u.arcsec)).to_table()
edit by bsipocz: some reformatting
Second scenario, using diameter=2*cone_search_radius/3600
has no spacial cut effect, a full search is run and results outside of the cone are returned
