Fullerscopes Telescope Mountings

This blog has become my ATM design, build and imaging diary. I have recently built several new telescopes, a large equatorial mounting and a raised 10' [3m] dome on an octagonal building. Be aware that I deal with building solar telescopes. Which are potentially VERY dangerous! I can accept NO responsibility for any action not directly supervised by myself. You are NOT entitled to blame any other person for your OWN lack of skill or ignorance. You copy me at your own peril!

Tuesday 8th overnight frost then sunshine.

11.54 [CET] First image. Rotating the Lunt B1200 BF relative to the PST etalon.

The light bridges are absent after processing. Fleetingly see on the monitor. Very soft image.

12.04 A more gentle processing. Heavily cropped to avoid PST etalon brightness in the corners.

12.37 Changed to 2.6x GPC. Over-sharpened. No light bridges.

15.14 Afternoon session. Slightly steadier seeing.

15.44 A disturbed area without spots. The PST detail is badly offset on the upper right. If only it were evenly spread across the entire image.

15.50 The seeing has gone to mush!

Wireless Internet from indoors was at 33Mbps today. Fastest yet.
