+RonC Posted April 9, 2017 Share Posted April 9, 2017 Well this is interesting, first AP from the new home site and the image is totally different from the ones I had at Cranwell. There's certainly more LP here although it looks OK so i guess I'll try a filter next time! The Moon was very bright which did not help but the mount tracked very well even though I was not not using Guiding, I got good 2min subs! Gradiant is pretty bad, I must get some software sorted!!

stash Posted April 9, 2017 Share Posted April 9, 2017 Doesn't matter really does it Ron - just the opportunity to get "back in the saddle" is a bonus. Hope you get your PHD / Camera sorted for next time. This is not a knock, as I find I have to do this more these days, - I take a screen print of what options I use - just in case I forget. Luckily PHD2 has profiles which can be Hardware specific so I dont have to remember Now what was I doing Orion 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wolfman_55 Posted April 9, 2017 Share Posted April 9, 2017 That's some great unguided tracking. Bet you're looking forward to some moon free imaging..... Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
