All going well so far, thanks Robin! I like everything except the long download time.
I have to go out on Monday and Tuesday nights, so they will probably be better, Peter 
Thanks, Paul.
Thanks, Louie. IIRC, you had problems with the focuser on your Baby Q? I think that's where my tilt is coming from too. I'm using an Atlas with the focuser racked in as much as possible (still need a spacer to achieve that with the new camera). Ultimately, I think I'll bite the bullet and spend the big bucks required to replace the focuser with a Precise Parts adapter. |
Hi Rick
An improvement since the BabyQ's return from Tak,and certainly less of an issue with a light camera like the QHY8 mate.
I've owned a FSQ106ED/FSQ106N and the Baby and they all showed signs of slight tilt.....the ST1100 is a big camera so,an after market focuser would be worth the money for your combo.
