Singlin

I use a Wifi dongle attached to my Servocat and Argonavis.

I use an 8" Samsung tablet and also my Edge 7 phone.

Once I managed to configure the visual display information setting to my liking I find the phone to be just as good.

Fabulous!

Hooke a true all rounder who deserved much more recognition .

Zes both the Paracorrs increase the fl by 15%

Paracorr 1 setting for an ES 30 82 degree eyepiece is 1.7 ie closer to 2 then to 1.

If zou have a known ezepiece setting zou put that ezepiece in the paracorr at the correct setting and then focus with the focuser knob.

All other ezepieces go into the paracorr after this and are only focused with the paracorr compression ring.

Which ES ezepieces do you have?

Great looking scopes guys!

I am new to the Dob scene after finishing my 16" 1760. Telekit with John Nichols mirrors and Hi lux coatings

I use a Parcorr and skycommander.

Finally where she belongs. 

Congratulations on a magnificent project and build.

I suspect that their is a logical explanation.

Whenever the delivery time is delayed a company that is honest and explains the reasons for a delay will keep the respect from the client.

Ignoring the client and problem and just delivering when the delay is sorted out will damage the respect.

Either way the delay will not go away so why not just chose the first option.

I am sure that you will receive a magnificent mirror nevertheless.

I have a similar scenario with my secondary mirror holder ( Hasta Manana sindrome)But at least I am getting updates.

How about paying an extra couple of hundred quid for the seller to make sure or adjust the optics before shipping?

In my opinion a good sturdy mount is important.

This image makes you want to zoom in and have a wander around.

One of the consequences of imaging single objects is that we tend to relate to the sky as single objects.

Olly's and Tom's masterpiece shows us many of our single objects as a whole and help put the sky into perspective.

I would love this image as a 4x3 meter print on a wall.

A bow and a salute of appreciation from me and also respect for the many hours of work that it must have taken to undergo such a task.

My friend also wants me to download his setup data as he has no internet.

Are all of the setup files in C:\cygwin ?

If he copies the cygwin file into the root of C can he just instal as normal?

Thxs

Am I right in thinking that once all the files have been downloaded at the initial setup of Astrotortila one no longer needs an internet connection?

A friend of mine has his observatorry in the middle of the sticks with no gsm or broadband.

Yes please!

Thanks

I installed AStrotortilla a couple of days ago and managed to solve ok.

Is it possible to solve and save?

It would be nice to be able to image the exact same position of the sky on another evening.

How does this software compare to the plate solving in Maxim dl?

Apart from the price.
