Hi Eric I can offer a few observations: On your model, you may have a few errant points (max error on east is 174 which seems high to me) I suggest you enable these two options Second,

What Mike says but when I look closely at some of the dimmer stars, they look like very tight double stars to me. Odd. Keep us posted. Jeff

Last night, it was cloudy. So, I set up APPM and connected it to my AP1600 mount. For the camera option, I selected NASA SkyView so I could see how the procedure works. It took about 25 minutes for

Thanks Karen. More great videos. I will throw another one into the suggestion list. How about a video demonstrating how to set up meridian delays with APCC and the Keypad. Maybe this would be better

Are you seeing the oval stars across the whole image ? If so, it could be that your imaging train is tilted ? If you are only seeing the oval stars in the corners you may have some field

I have a TEC 140 refractor on a 1100GTO with encoders on a permanent pier. I ran a 378 point model, and am getting excellent guiding with SGP and PHD2; mostly +/- 0.25 pixels, but getting very oval

RTFM of course...

I’ve been swapping saddles around and installing a DOVELM162 on the Mach2 today. Of course, finding the correct bolts is a bit of a challenge.

Hi, Am using APCC latest version and for the life of me cannot get the system to accept a fixed DHCP lease for its TCP connection. I set it on my router with the right MAC address but almost at

I bought a mini pc which came preinstalled with Win 11. I had no intention of trying it prior to that, but absolutely everything astro related works with no issues whatsoever. I can see no advantage

Loosen the clutches, send it to Park3, let it go where it wants. Then move it manually to Park3. That's it. Rolando

Andy, Thanks. I have a permanent setup, so I will go right to APPM to build the model Jack Jack Huerkamp Jack's Astro Accessories, LLC 38388 Pine Street Pearl River, LA

Linwood, Thanks. The video I found was made by Dale Ghent. That is why I was interested in using NINA to do the APPM . Yours truly, Jack Jack Huerkamp Jack's Astro Accessories,
