MX PE and TPoint, ProTrack
Hi Peter et al,
I read in your last post that you use the PEC from PemPro and not from SkyX.
My uncorrected PE is only about +/- 0.8 arc secs so smaller than the seeing noise. Although the recorded error curve looks good, when it is applied the PE sometimes stays about the same or more often gets worse, it never improves. I had put this down to seeing noise and some inventive interpolation by the SkyX and as I usually guide I just left PEC off.
However, I have recently tried some unguided runs and have found that ProTrack definitely makes things worse, presumably because no PEC is being applied, so I now question my previous assumption and looking at the PEC curves I am again questioning the phase of the correction.
So has anyone actually made a good PEC using SkyX for an MX mount in the Southern Hemisphere. The software fix earlier this year corrected the rotation error for the SH but I am wondering if it fixed the phase issues?
Regards
Kim
