Finally get to look through some data from the out-of-action LX200. The good news is that the RA motor still works, and there was at least some power getting to a fried connector. I will try to change that out today and see if I can get it to work.
M66 has 20 minutes each of RGB, and a little more that twice that in luminance. There are some flat (with camera rotation) issues, but that is hard to correct without the scope mounted right now.
Processing suggestions always welcome. (and needed!) Thanks for looking.
