hi allan

you currently have the moon as a good target, so take the camera/rcc1 out of the focuser and hold a bit of baking paper above the focuser to find out where the moon image is formed - that is where the camera focal plane has to go. I don't know what your scope design is, but you will probably have the RCC1 hanging into the ota a fair way and you may need to move the mirror forward a bit to move the focal plane out and get the RCC1 out of the input column of light.

whatever, it'll work fine when you get it set up
