      Thanks Charl, glorious here. Managed to get some WL and Ca-K data after Venus disappeared behind a tree. Hope the skies clear for you soon.

    1. David Smith

      David Smith

      That's a serious piece of kit! Back to looking for rubber wallpaper then. I picked up a copy of Astronomy Now yesterday so have been reading about all the stuff that will be clouded out in 2019 :grin:

    New lappy ordered, should allow me to get better frame rates from the ASI 178. Fingers crossed.

      Yes, vega 8 or something? Ryzen bench tests looked like this would complete with I7 cpu's so seemed like a no-brainer and £250 off in Black Friday sale too!
