I collected that information a few months ago when Alpha Centuri was visible from my location .
I ran it all through Pixinsight which took most of the day , my computer was choking on it .
The result was washed out , still sharp but I didn't think it was much chop .
God knows how I got it . A few weeks ago I couldn't even get a calibration in PHD2 because I had develpoed so much Dec backlash .
I decide to trouble shoot EVERYTHING .
I found and completely fixed the Dec backlash , identified and fixed a small amount of backlash in the RA axis . Checked the belts on the mount drives , removed a Farpoint adjustable deck which my guide scope was sitting on which was wiggling like you wouldnt believe . I couldn't get my PC to talk to the mount and PaulSthCoast suggested I move on and get a ASIair .
I ordered it and downloaded the ASIStudio . That's when I came across ASIDeepStack . I put it all through ASIDeepstack in around 15 minutes and although still sharp the result was far better .
