Hey Chris, can you see what we will need to plate solve with EKos? Probably need to DL the astrometry.net indices and AstroTortilla. Any idea?

I didn't get that far (no cameras would work
), so I didn't progress the plate solving aspect.
However, from reading, I think you can either use the online astrometry.net or use a local install of astrometry.net. I know I'll be looking at the latter.
I'd look at doing a local install of astrometry.net and configuring for that. I don't believe AstroTortilla will be needed, since that's basically "inside" Ekos.
I got to the point where I was trying to build everything from source to fix the camera problems, so I've taken a pause to start rebuilding the laptop into a version of Linux I'm more comfortable using.
