    You would lose you're Polar Alignment then. Best alter it on the handset and then look for your targets and adjust if needed..

    Not as yet, but I also saw it on the video! Ron

    There is also the Tri-band (or Quad Band depending on your Sky quality) filter from Altair Astro which I use and has had some good results..

    I use a CC on my 150PDS and it really works, well worth the investment! 👍

    I also used the WiFi dongle and SynScan app on my late HEQ5 and it was so accurate every time. Using it now on my NEQ6 with the same great results! Ron

    Try Moleskin lined trousers, most outdoor type shops sell them!!

    That's the way I do it but I use a library of Flats and take 20 Bias frames just after finishing my lights.. Ron

    What we need is a cross-hair, 1.25 mm similar to a screw in filter. Then you can just screw it into whichever EP you use? Does anybody make one?? Ron

    Focal length is 162 mm it says on the blurb, 50 mm is the diameter. Ron

    I wouldn't bother shooting JPegs just RAW as it keeps all the info..

    I was using this star to gain focus with the CCD and it started to rain, I pulled my shedatory over the gear and took 6 x 60s and got the rain as well!!

    A SW 150PDS or a SW ED80 Pro, both good, reasonably priced scopes..

    All understood Shane, you've been very busy! Is the North facing roof fixed? Well done. Ron
  23. Ronclarke
    The open photo doesn't make much sense to me, why is the middle section still in place?? Ron
  24. Ronclarke
    You need 20 +stacked light frames then stretch the image . Ron

    Many people on here use a 50 mm guide scope, by using a Finder scope and attaching a small CMOS guide camera.. There is a set up for sale on here c£70.. Ron
