None the less, they are very faint and don't detract from a great result .


Nice one
Thanks Peter.
Since your comment, I have investigated possible internal reflections & have 3d printed an extension to the baffle tube.
I had made an end-cap with a baffle for the end of the tube previously, but this would still allow off-axis rays to bounce around within the tube.
Also added some felt flocking which appears to make a big difference to visible light compared to the stock black paint.

Thanks Malcolm.
Unfortunately, I think that those satelites are going to be pretty had to miss soon..
