Busy with new equipment. Replaced my old parallel ST-8 with a new USB STL1001e. I had to replace the observatory PC (plus OS - Plus new versions of all the control software to suit the new OS and camera), rebalance the scope, recalibrate pointing, autofocus mechanisms and autoguiding.

Then, I had to fit the old ST-8 to the new L200 Spectrograph kit (well I had to build the L200 from the kit) and then calibrate it. If you thought photometry was hard.......

Cheers
