Comments: |
With the CI700 mount, depending on temperature, its always a surprise to find out if it will guide tonight or not. This was no exception, as I has just finished imaging M78 and rebalanced, retensioned, and recalibrated to find that the guiding was very bad. By the time I got it all working again, it was too late to get the RGB shots. |
