Lovely shot but if it’s dark where is the light coming from to illuminate the church? Roger

How often do you have to replace the dessicant tablet on the 460? I see a large black screw head on it , is that where you put it in? Roger

Top Banana🍌 mate , cheers for that, Roger

Not Double stacked , only single. Roger

I use SharpCap, seems quite good, Roger

Any tips on Flats , re wrong side it was late last night and i was tired when i posted , it was left.LoL thanks Sub. Roger

Astrobin link for caphttps://astrob.in/5yuub7/0/ture details The earth top left for size comparison Roger

I have the rings and micro focuser from france and a Atik460ex mono but just could not find focus if i start with the focus (using the Bhatinov cap from france) at the L with the screws equally set , as advised, help would be welcome as i really want to get into widefield imaging, Roger

i added £10,000 of cover , which i may have to increase, on the house and contents insurance(only added £18 a year to premium) which includes in the car and when your away from home.. Roger

Or a fishing rod alarm. Fishing Alarms online watch the end for a nice theft alarm https://youtu.be/dEEQcNp-apw HTH Roger

Obviously doesnt help with the loss but i would suggest getting long cables and feed them through a small window, i have an Eagle3 power unit on the mount and only have to feed the power cable to it , and a 25 foot HDMI cable given to me free from an accomadating neighbour who turns his light of when i text him to say i am imaging , i cant say how great is that we are friendly with the neighbours. One side is a plummer known them for 30 plus years and he installed our stand alone shower 20 years ago and wouldnt take anything for doing it just costs ,eventually forced a bottle of wine on him , the other side is an electrician so couldnt have worked out better!. Roger

Totally agree as i have been reprocessing 2 year old data and am very pleased with results, mainly because i lost images on the astrobin meltdown, suffice to say i backup now before posting anything. Roger

Just cleaned my Skywatcher Ed120 and wow what a difference just like new , used the Baader optical wonder cleaner and their cloth. Roger

I have a 3 night rule , only setting up if confirmed at least 3 nights imaging , so if first night is a washout then you have 2 othe niights to get something. Roger

Spectacular Roger

Yes i know but this was the first time i used the scope so just wanted to see how i could process a frame , i also did a few 1000 -+ frame avis,taking longer to process as first time in Autostakkert3, Thanks, Roger

Yes , thanks for heads up, Roger

Thanks all , Roger

Yes i had it was windy here , in SharpCap liveview it was moving around quite a bit. Roger

1 x 3.17ms capture and processed in PS. Roger

both my Atik460 and Zwo ASI184mm screw directly into the EFW , althought the Atik needs a screwthread reverser. Roger

Have you done your backfocus? Roger
