Yep, I bought nebulosity and its a vast improvement on the Meade software, much more user friendly but.....
All I seem to get is multicoloured noise even with the cover on the objective, don't look too dark to me. I was initially using the F5 80mm refractor, but swapped to my 150 newt and got a noisy image of distorted stars with the Meade software but still the same problem with Nebulosity, black frame and reddish streaks on the top 25% of it with no stars. Starting to wonder if the camera is faulty.
Target was the Orion Nebula, Tuc 47 is behind a tree at the moment and if I move the scope, the darn light in the next street over shines like a spotlight.
Just about ready to bin the darn thing.
