What is the MPCC used for Peter - getting the F3.8 Newt out again I expect?
Yeah. I decided to have another Cheshire attack on it and collimate the old-fashioned way. I'm reasonably happy with the way it came together. And I have recently dug my old HX916 out of the back of the proverbial cupboard to which I have now added some Astrodon filters and a wheel. They give a great image scale of 1.45 as/p which is really right on the sweet spot.
So I'm planning to have a good crack at doing some LRGB stuff in the Spring.
Like all good plans, that does have one principal weakness - the weather.
