  1. hi all after few guide cam problems thought i would start at the beginning and reset the oag ,but when i loosened the screw that secures how far the plate /prism goes in i removed the arm and the glass prism fell on the floor,there is a very small screw that holds the prism in place that obviously was not tight enough,now ive put the glass prism in correctly but cannot get the guide scope to work at all ,how critical are the prism set up
  2. why RG and B binned 2x2 thanks
  3. hi guys the oag is on my ts100 quad,i used a st80 for guiding with my ed80 worked perfect
  4. well just tried the asi178 c in the oag, on the moon for focus just before dusk as it was cloudy later but had no joy,but on saying that put the qhy5 ii back in and couldnt focus that on the moon either ,will have to wait for a clear night
  5. thanks guys im using it with the ts 100 quad ,cheers
  6. hi guys i know it may vary but typically what percentage do you do the following lrgb images for dso ie do you do twice as many l as rgb if you know what i mean thanks
  7. tried using my oag with a qhy5 mono ccd tonight(which ive used quite often) but could not get enough steady signal to lock onto with phd2 ,moved the guider in and out,still same,now i know it was half moon ,but the sky was clear,but have never noticed this problem before so 1..does the moon effect the oag much 2.. does the oag need a heat strap 3.. would my asi178 be more sensitive thanks
