Thanks guys.

I use CCD inspector to monitor my imaging folder live. As soon as a new image gets deposited it measures it for various attributes FWHM being one of them.

I suspect that my ever degrading FWHM has to do with three things, temprature, seeing and the angle of the object relative to the horizon. I notice that the closer it gets to the horizon the worse my FWHM gets. I'll need to add a few more focusing runs in my sessions.

I just wish to god that Software Bisque would hurry up and develop the camera add on a bit more to allow automated focusing runs between filters selection and temperature change. I'm kinda wondering why I paid so much for it when you consider programs like Astro art and the likes.
