Yes, there is a mono version of the Sony IMX571 APS-C detector on the way. I read on CN today that QHY is trying to get theirs out by mid January. Both ZWO and QHY introduced a new 4/3” sensor

Re: Version P02-08 now available for GTOCP4 and GTOCP5 control boxes
Hi Marj,
Could you tell me how to identify the version of my GTOCP5 so I know if I need the update?
I got the Mach2 two weeks ago, but I am not sure if the update is needed.
Also, when I proceed to

Nice to see such good images being taken with CMOS cameras. They are getting better all the time. Now the mainstream guys not just the Chinese manufactures are starting to produce them. I am pretty

Re: 10 inch f6.6 reflector on ap1100?
The 1100 mount would not even know it was there.
There are many coma correctors available for Newtonians, and you should be able to get good images over a full frame camera field.

10 inch f6.6 reflector on ap1100?

I have an 1100 on order and I have an old 10 inch f6.6 reflector with superb optics. I was thinking I might try imaging with it. Would the mount handle it?

Nice work Dean. I love wide field shots. Faithfully reproduced star color is a pleasure to see.

I don't think the issue is 20H2. I have been running/testing APCC on several computers with 20H2, and APCC works fine on that version of Windows.

Re: Should Mach1 users follow the APCC Pro upgrades?

Neither of these two issues is an issue with APCC. If you are having USB problems, it is likely being caused by a bad cable, a problematic USB hub, if you are using one, or the USB driver or USB
