Hi Pierre

I’ve not used my gear much recently and so when I set up for this Solar System Interloper, I found several applications, drivers and firmware that were outdated and needed to be updated. In the field is not the best place to do this!

I really should have set up and performed a few dry runs first, just to check the HW/SW status and refresh my set up and operation skills.

So, if you have the time and the conditions, definitely have a go before the big night, just to make sure that everything runs as smoothly as possible when the comet is within reach.

Good luck.

Dennis
