I have MaximDL that I always use for imaging. So, all I would need then is Astro tortilla? Nuttin' else? Margarita maybe to go with it? Rolando

Hi Jim, thanks for taking a look. 1. 180 s at gain 100 offset 50. 2. I haven't done that. I only get out 3 or 4 times a month for imaging so I haven't had time to do anything like that. 3. I have

OOPS, sorry didn't see the attachment. Was looking for a link. --- Mike

Can we see your image? --- Mike

Configure your virtual ports starting at a higher com port like 20, 21, etc. That way you won’t have a com port conflict with the mouse, etc.

My first ever digital imaging using the Mak Mars attacker. Shocked to see I actually picked up the largest known volcano in the solar system from my backyard. - j

>>>They plate solve standalone, i should clarify, they all need you to do a separate download and install of a reference star database. THEN it's standalone :) -- Brian Brian Valente portfolio

And it'll be great if APCC/APPM eventually supports ASTAP. ASTAP is just a wickedly fast plate solver (and free). cytan

They plate solve standalone, If you need to sync the mount coordinates, you will also need a compatible imaging program to do that. (for example ASTAP lists CCDCiel, NINA, APT or SGP). The imaging

Dean, impressive image. Well done, especially the vivid colors. A couple of questions for you. 1. How long were your individual sub exposures? I'm gradually increasing unguided exposure times on

Yes, you are right. As far as I know that's the principal difference.

Tom, The COM port should be completely transparent to all those applications. All you need to tell them is to talk to the AP ASCOM driver. APCC has created a virtual COM port for the driver and

Thank you. Does it require any other software to work? Roland

Hi I guess, I don't quite get it...when you are in an application and you choose the Ascom mount driver, there are the settings which you use to select a comport. Do you not need to attach every

Astro tortilla is about as simple as it gets ASTAP is another one -- Brian Brian Valente portfolio brianvalentephotography.com

Is there a simple stand-alone plate solve program that can be used by a casual imager who just wants to center an object (without all the other goodies that CCD Commander has)? Rolando

You must have been subscribed to the old yahoogroups lists with both email addresses. Hit the "Contact Group Owner" link that is at the bottom of every message and ask that they (probably Marj and

Hi, I would like to check my understanding of the differences between APCC-pro and ST versions. With APCC-Pro, it is possible : - to build a dual-pointing model, - to track with correction of speed

Interesting! I didn't know PEMPro could select a star. I've always used TSX to identify suitable mag 6-8 stars near the meridian and equator, then I do a go-to and plate-solve in CCD Commander. I

I currently receive all of the group messages on two different email addresses, and I would like to delete the secondary email, but I can not see where to do this in the groups IO profile. Any
