Astrotrac

:woohoo: Hi Lads, my Astrotrac has arrived today, I'm just taking it out of the box now, i'm like a child at 5am christmas morning :woohoo:

Trevor, could you post those 4min shots?

Keith..

Hey Keith,

Sorry, been away without an internet connection. I brought the Astrotrac away on holiday to Antigua but haven't really got any shots to show since the Monserrat volcano erupted nearby there's still tonnes of ash in the sky

I'm just taking it out of the box now, i'm like a child at 5am christmas morning

Ha! I know exactly how you feel. I'm dying to get proper use of it.

Gotta say it's a different story trying to image here at 2 am & 24 degrees celsius. Slightly different to Galway. Maybe I should move down here permanently

I'll post those 4 min shots when I get back to Galway & our normal cold climes.

Also found out what the problem with the polarscope was. Taking it apart it seems there was a load of lubricant across the flat that has the etchings on it and one of the lenses was in backwards. Everything worked great once that was fixed.

T

Enjoy the holiday Trevor, I can't wait to see your shots

Keith.
