I am going to try to make it to the March gathering - haven't been able to get there since November. I have been making slow progress at home getting my drift alignment right - but I think I've cracked it.
My wishlist of things to do that weekend would be:
1. wouldn't mind doing some tracked/unguided shots with my Canon through the 8" newt to see how it goes. The camera is an old 10D - way to much noise / hot pixels as I found out with the widefield shots I took in November. Will need to get a T-ring and adapter though beforehand....
2. Would like to try using Alignmaster. I haven't been able to do it at home as the star pairs it asks for are all but impossible from my place in Brissy - trees mostly
3. Would very much like to do some plain old observation. I have been putting so much time into learning about the mount / scope etc that I haven't had much time to actually look at anything...
Here's hoping the weather gods are good to us .
