One of the things I am gonna change in the obs, is adding another CCD monitor to my obs PC specifically to help with focus. I have two 24" in ones in there but they are about 2 meters from the scope so focussing is a bit of a pain. I am gonna set another smaller 19" one I have on the wall right next to the scope so I can see it easilly when at the scope trying to focus.

Nice work Bill. Am currently waiting on a DMK41. Nice to see it is competent on hi res too. I was just expecting to take full disk images with it, but clearly you have been able to capture hi res detail with the 15 frames a second capablity.

Thanks Roman. I have been learning the ins and outs of photoshop layers and colours . The process is still a bit hit and miss but I am getting there.

Thanks Paul, I should clarify that I use the MONO DMK41. I am gonna try and push it a little further the next opportunity I get. Currently I use a 2x barlow. Wanna buy a 3x the next opportunity I get and give that a go (go up in baby steps)
