  1. Jim or @Paul Gerlach, could you show the link I can download this plugin from, please? Edit: OK. I've found it.
  2. Lukas, maybe you could offer these accessories in your Astrojolo shop.
  3. Thanks Ken. I've got the same result, so if Simspec V4.3 says the truth for 600 l/mm and less the telescope could be f/6.3, even with 25 x 25mm grating, I guess. It is needed to increase collimator diameter, of course.
  4. Paul, what is the "Collimator/Camera -Total angle" ? -> 56° ?
  5. You are right. He was doing it at very bright stars and wanted to achieve high resolution (dispersion less than 1A/pix as I know) so lose of light was acceptable. I'm building lowspec for a completely different purpose - using grating 150 l/mm, 80mm camera lens and 26um camera pixel (dispersion 20A/pixel, R~130) - I want to make spectra of 15-17mag supernovae in long time exposures (10" SCT).
  6. Thank you Paul, nothing happened. Maybe I will build Lowspec 3 someday and I already have one part As far as I know there are 3 people in Poland who are building Lowspec. @drjolo and me are still building or testing, but one of our colleagues (Bajastro) already has reached very good results at high resolution (Almach, Aldebaran, Capella stars): https://astropolis.pl/topic/69283-widma-gwiazd-ze-spektrografu-low-spec-2/
  7. Hi Paul (and other astro friends ). I thought that It'll be good to print "16_ovio_guide_platform" also, because It has a bit larger (longer) opening. Unfortunately, this was not a good idea. The new "16_ovio_guide_platform" can't be fitted to LowSpec2, right?
  8. Hi Thomas,
    I've got G-40 too:

    There's G-40 user manual on Gemini page:
    http://www.geminitelescope.com/Manuals/geminig40manual.pdf

    I wonder, if it is the same manual as yours.

    Best wishes

      Hi Jarek, I've only just seen your message! Sorry for not replying sooner. You look like you have a great set up. What do you think of the mount?

      all the best, Tom.

      Hi Tom,
      Well, I'm very happy with this mount, really. I had NEQ6 and I have to say the G40 is much, much more stable, even during windy weather (I have roll-off roff obs). Old FS2 "goto" system I changed to AstroEQ.

      Clear skies
