    Haze haze and more haze, so no useful observing or imaging; but alignment worked. I need to tighten up the AZ clutch friction a tad and then re-register the encoder as a final test. It's looking good though.

    I'm using the summer for practice, not that I'm getting much. I want alignment, tracking, imaging and post processing all well rehearsed before the good skies of winter arrive. That way I should be able to get straight to work rather than waste good viewing time learning how to use my kit.
    Hi, I'm a Board Guide on the Old Style and the Consumer Rights boards which means I'm a volunteer to help the boards run smoothly and can move and merge posts there. Board guides are not moderators and don't read every post. If you spot an inappropriate or illegal post then please report it to forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com. It is not part of my role to deal with reportable posts. Any views are mine and are not the official line of MoneySavingExpert.
    Never ascribe to malice that which is adequately explained by incompetence.
