Jupiter 17/10/2010 from Brissie

Finally got some sky, and with it a chance to try out the webcam from Morgans in the UK.

Williams Optics 110mm Magrez
4x Powermate
2x barlow
NEQ6 Pro
60fps, 1700/3560 frames, stacked and processed in Registax 5.1

Seeing was pretty poor (don't ask for a number ), and I can assure you I didn't expect to get a result any thing like this with such a small aperture.

The colour looks nice, but you really were let down by the seeing

Nice effort.

Good effort Tony, certainly very promising for when you get more stable conditions.

Thanks Trevor,

Very happy with the image scale, but don't you think I need more aperture? (you could have a quiet word with Anne-Louise )

Not sure how long the weather will play ball, but work interferes with the important things in life, so I'm not able to setup every night.

Cheers
Tony
