    LOL, no worries, yes there is a little space around the disk with the 178mm using the lunt 60mm bf1200.

    I've just installed the Revelation super focuser rack and pinion with a jmi motor. Only used it once but seems good so far. I usually manually focus with the original mirror shift focuser and then fine tune with the SCT Focuser.

    Hi, no, the 178mm provides a full disk as above without the need for mosaic but for certain features I also use the powermates. My full disk images are just that. Hope that clarifies the confusion.

    Hi, I use a 2.5x and 5x powermate with the 178 camera when transparency permits.

    I'd put it down to cabin fever, what's the limiting magnitude, lol.

    Many thanks Richard, appreciate it.

    Hi, my computer recognised the bluetooth device but wouldn't assign a com port.
  12. Nigella Bryant
    No probs, I'm probably going to do a tuning on band for a lunt solar scope tutorial soon as I've seen some images that aren't tuned properly and thus you don't get the best details on the disk.

    Thanks Merlin, appreciate the help. May well ask lot's of questions, lol.
  14. Nigella Bryant
    Thanks Merlin. I've ordered the EQDir cable.

    My image from 7th May 2020 to compare. North at top.

    Used a Lunt 60mm DS with pressure tuner and tilt tuner on DS. Camera was a Zwo Asi 178mm and false colour added in photoshop. Also used to bring out the proms was ImPPG.

    Hi all, got all the different cameras connected via APT and Sharpcap. Focus wheel connected. Telescope fans and dew shield heater connected but I'm having real trouble connecting the neq6 to the computer. Download ascom and pad plus drivers but computer won't connect nor will APT to the mount, I've tried through the hand controller and through Bluetooth. Any suggestions.

    I'll take a look at my ha image from yesterday and post later to compare.
  19. Nigella Bryant
    Yeah, proms similar in ha and cak.
  20. Nigella Bryant
    Hi, yeah, the left of the high peak and left high peak of the histogram affects the outer part of your image bringing out the prominences, the lower part after the high peak and to the right affects the disk itself. Hope this makes sense.

    Image taken on 4th May 2020 using Lunt 60mm Double Stack, pressure tuner and tilt tuner for DS and Zwo Asi 178mm. False colour added in Photoshop CS2.
  22. Nigella Bryant
    No, never miss out, post them when you can.
  23. Nigella Bryant
