I need the weather to clear up a bit in S. Florida. I have been collecting data with two or three cameras and scopes for a long time and coordinated dithering was a missing link. Right now, I just

You have a full month of time range. Can you try narrowing it down to one hour and the 1-second effective time interval?

Linwood, Synchronized dither/flip? I was not paying attention. You have my attention now. That feature is the only thing I am really missing for my trio of scopes on the AP 1600. I have been

Ray, thanks. I tried selecting on 2,3,4,7, and 9. But I keep getting the same result: The sequence ending in error is shown here: https://youtu.be/8ewIGj9ImkE I can for sure try other

I have been using the nightly since the day I got mine late summer. Beta or Nightly there's always some risk a bug will get introduced in new versions, but it has been very stable. And more is

Hi It’s been long enough, maybe a month, I don’t see any nightly builds. Has everyone moved to NINA 2.0 Beta? Is it ready for AP mounts? Cheers

Hi Mauricio, Try selecting only these five check boxes in the Observer Table Settings: 2,3,4,7, and 9. -Ray

I run an Officina Stellare 152mm APO triplet refractor (same optics as your TMB) with either an Officina Stellare 80mm APO refractor or TV 85 APO on my AP1100 and previously same setup on my AP 900.

Can't go wrong with the Rob Miller Tri36H or a Particle Wave Technology Monolith. Unfortunately they are not brand new anymore- out of production. Must be acquired 2nd hand, pre owned. Fernando

Geert, thanks. Yeah, I used those recommended settings. I captured the sequence in this brief clip (in 1080p quality, it should show a clear image of the sequence and settings):

Mauricio, Did you check that the necessary table settings are selected (2, 3, 4, 7, 9) ? Check Edit Table Settings on the Horizons web page. Geert Op do 18 nov. 2021 om 21:12 schreef moguerra via

I did tried one more time today using the BETA version you provided above (Pro 1.9.1.1). I did set the proper settings and used the buttons to download the data within JPL site and the "Load JPL

Yes - thanks Ray and Geert. I was out last night at 3:30-5:30 AM tracking down comet Leonard, but didn't try to use Horizons at that time. Later this weekend I'll give it a go. -Mikey

I thought I would report my experience regarding imaging with the Mach2 unguided using my AP 140 (focal length 1046mm). I previously had an 80 point model and only got good images at 5 min. I

Yes, I do see why! I had thought from the pictures on the AP website that the 1600 mounted with longitudinal bolts through a flat base and into the pier top plate. But actually it mounts with radial

Hi Geert, Okay, thanks for confirming the Horizon update in the beta works! -Ray

Hi Ray, I have used that beta a few times now. Indeed, I load the downloaded ephemeris file with the new downoad button, it works well without copying and pasting. Thanks, Geert

I posted a beta version with a fix for Horizons about a month ago, but I haven't received any feedback for that version. In the new version, you should use the download button on the NASA Horizons

This is what that odd flip looked like: Seems to be ok after the restart and whatever I did.
