Autoguiding up and running with M51

OK - by the way, I met Mike People's in Adorama, NYC, on Monday. He's the bloke who took the Supernova image. Now, *that's* a small world :shock: Gave me free Televue baseball cap

Anyhow, delivery is due in about 24 hours...

That is an amazing coincidence! :shock:

Wishing you the best of luck in 24hours...and for a few days time also when coming back through the green channel!

I have an IR UV filter which came with the LRGB set. I had taken this out because I was having trouble with vignetting. I'd moved the filter wheel right up as close to the chip as I could and I forgot to put the filter back in. I have also noticed that since I have switched up to the 10" light pollution gradients are more obvious so I will also be putting in a broadband LP filter. All I'll have to do now is increase imaging time to allow all the faint light to fight its way through the barriers.
