Question..... Help!!

Posted By Edward Roach

Hi Tyler,

That's the same thing that happens to me at that exact number of frames (2319), with both versions. That is why I usually image Saturn at 5fps. I have Windows XP as my OS, I wonder if that has something to do with it?

Hi Eric,

Count yourself lucky. We had 26" in my town with snow drifts as high as 6 feet in my backyard. I have no idea how I'm going to get my scope into the backyard for the next couple of weeks. sad
Oh well, at least I can always see what you guys are imaging.

Hi Paul,

If I could capture what you consider to be a poor image, I'd be a happy man. Your solar images continue to be among the best I've seen. Thanks for posting.

Hi Wes,

That is a very impressive image, as usual. Hopefully you'll get better luck with the planets soon.

Jupiter with my ED100

Posted By Edward Roach

Hi Paul,

It was an early start in the morning for that image I bet, and the results show it paid off.
I hope you can get your 9.25 back on track, you have taken some beautiful images with it in the past.

Another Saturn Attempt

Posted By Edward Roach

Hi Tyler,

That's a fine looking image. You have had several good images lately, but I know what you mean about getting some good seeing conditions, the best I've ever had was 6/10. Lets hope we can get at least one night this year with seeing at 8 or better. I'd also like to see what my 8" SCT can do under optimum conditions.

Clear skies,

Ed Roach
