Monday 17th 81/78F clear and bright on the last day of the heatwave.

10.00 A later start: Steady seeing with high contrast after fiddling with the PST Etalon for more even brightness across the whole 800x600 frame.

Two obvious disturbances on the disk. Fitted the 2x GPC to ensure coverage of the larger disturbance. 


12.00 I had to close the dome to avoid a dust storm from the harvesting of the fields beside our home!

18.30Back after another long, hot day. Seeing transparent but "simmering." Results acceptable but not quite as hoped.
