What aweful conditions! (see average frame bottom right) so I'm amazed I got anything at all.

Very happy with these results, but only because I had my corrector out couple of weeks ago, as well as the secondary parted from the corrector so I was slightly worried about the orientation of things. If I can get an SCT back together without blowing it, anyone can ;):thumbsup:

Back to my solar...Someone wake me when the seeing comes good, ok? :P

The image is crappola though..Delete!:lol:

I'm blown away with the image you pulled from that data. Ive had better data and a much worse final image on many an occasion!

Thanks Peter. No more blown away than I. I've seen this plenty of times before but I'm still not used to it...It's that camera, & Autostakkert, as well as on the money collimation.

Totally stock standard Mark. Well unless you classify a Crayford hanging on the rear end as non standard.

Certainly a pretty crook raw frame there Asi but for sure a nice final result.
