NGC183 in Hα- first light for new hardware

Recommended Posts

Hi,

this is the first light of my new ASi183MM Pro with wheel and ZWO filters. 24x180s Hα, 10 Darks. Stacked in DSS and stretched a bit. 

There are some problems with tracking/guiding (using Ekos' internal guider), mainly in dec. I don't really know where to start, but I probably will run the setup through PHD2's routines and see what comes up. Hopfully I am not just overloading my old Vixen GP!

Things to try:

  • Have a look at the logs.
  • Check balancing.
  • Cables. Lots of cables!
  • Backlash in dec? PHD should be able to measure this.
  • ...?

Well, but for my first try with filters, wheel, new camera and half a moon from a small city, I am quite happy.
