When will I learn?
Last night I was doing another night of imaging with the Honders (working beautifully) and I could see the object would be too low after about 12am. So I thought I would go at 11:30 cut the run short a tad and swap over cameras to the Trius and image a galaxy for another 4 or 5 hours from 12 to 5am. Should only take 30 minutes tops to swap the camera.
Well 4.5 hours later it was running well! A dodgy USB cable, minor mistakes, focusing, getting the camera square, rebalancing.
Got about 2 hours on a galaxy though.
The moral of the story is a setup that is all running perfectly is deceptive and gives the feeling that changing out to some other part will be a piece of cake. Think again.
Greg.
