Hi Guys,
Had a chance to test the autoguiding port on the EQ6 last Thursday night with the DSI II. This is done from the GPUSB unit from
http://www.store.shoestringastronomy.com/index.htm
Software used for autoguiding on the EQ6:
- Guidestar v1.1
- Virtual Serial Port
- Envisage
Guidescope:
- 4 inch newt
- DSI
Imaging Scope:
- 8 inch GSO newt
- DSI II
Processing:
- Registax for stacking
- Photoshop CS2
- Astro Tools
Dark frames were not taken as purely i wanted to test the autoguiding. Focus was off and bright moon so i wasnt about to post it
stars are abit oval not sure if this maybe caused from the rough polar alignment.
Consist of 6 x 2minute 49 second .
Comments welcome.
