Sunspot 798 (10 Sept 2005) Prime Focus and Barlowed

Hi

Set up this morning and noticed a giant sunspot - wow it was Huuuuge!

Grabbed the following images using the Vixen 4” refractor and Meade LPI:

• Prime focus (20 images auto-stacked)
• TeleVue x2.5 PowerMate (12 images auto-stacked)
• TeleVue x5 PowerMate (single image due to turbulence)

Meade LPI set to 90% quality to minimize the effects of variable seeing.
Baader full aperture solar filter.
Vixen 4” f9 refractor.
Vixen GPDX mount.

Cheers

Dennis
