Finally got round to tying APT and Pointcraft.

Why have i left it so long.Its a great piece of software,a bit daunting at first,but soon began to began to make a little sense.

Following the Tutorial on Plate-solving above,i was soon able to have a crack at it.

I just shot a 60 min sequence of 600 secs on the pacman in Ha as a test run.

Platesolving in APT  👍,Goto++ Is brilliant and reliable, changed to the ASTAP Plugin for blindsolving found it more reliable  if you use at least 1600 Iso .

Excellent image. I'm interested in APT but find the user interface a bit daunting. Can I ask which tutorials you used?
