FUNCTION fGetNearestSpecObjEq

Returns nearest scienceprimary specobj within @r arcminutes of an equatorial point (@ra,@dec).

returned table:
specObjID bigint, -- unique spectrum ID
plate int NOT NULL, -- spectroscopic plate number
mjd int NOT NULL, -- MJD of observation
fiberID int NOT NULL, -- fiber number on plate
z real NOT NULL, -- final spectroscopic redshift
zErr real NOT NULL, -- redshift error
zWarning int NOT NULL, -- warning flags
cx float NOT NULL, -- x of normal unit vector in J2000
cy float NOT NULL, -- y of normal unit vector in J2000
cz float NOT NULL, -- z of normal unit vector in J2000
htmID bigint, -- 20-deep HTM ID
distance float -- distance in arc minutes
