Wednesday 15th 46F, overcast, then cloudy then cleared enough to trick me into trying some imaging. 

 11.27 SE quadrant. Poor processed image captured through fully dewed objective. Two dew bands on full around the D-ERF and objective cell. Foam "dewshield" in place. Hair drier had no visible impact.

 11.50 [CET] Cloud has arrived at high speed from the west.  Fully overcast in seconds! Dark enough to rain! Closed the shutters just in case.

 SharpCap update. 4.0.8395. License has expired. Paid £12 for Pro version.

SharpCap offers ASCOM mounting control. ASCOM tells me there are no COM ports. I get a single flash from the serial adapter when I connect it but it hasn't flashed rhythmically for a year! I have tried all the USB ports available. Mostly USB3.
