I'm sure glad you're getting some imaging and processing done , I'm still fighting to get 1 or 2 channels ran with clouds messing up my guiding after I get it running . I may only be getting an hour of data a night , I'll take what I can get . Real nice and tight Marc , that HEQ5 Pro is doing a really awesome job for you {just tracking} . keep'em coming. KUDOS !

"Bummer" , All we're getting here is "BOIL" since May. 4 months of Heat and humidity and very little cooling at night. It's killing me , I go out to the drive with a fan and a cold water mist bottle" Redneck Air - Conditioner . I'm only out for maybe an 1/2 an hour if everything is working and do my acquisitioning from my Cumfy chair while I watching the game or shows. I'm still ironing out some bugs with my Po'man imaging Kit , it's really make me "kick dirt" sometimes . I look forward to you getting back to posting some images Marc.
