Thanks so much Roland for the calculation! I just put a 13035FF on order along with the 16mm spacer. Thanks again! Scott

Wow that would be fantastic! I already have the QTCC and connection pieces to the focuser and would love to stay with AP Field Flattener if it would give good results. I'm using a QHY268M (APS-C) with

Curious if anyone has used the AP 13035FF with a TEC140FL? Thanks! Scott

Thanks Marcelo! With the TEC140FL I would either be imaging at 980 mm or I also have the AP QUADTCC to image at around 700 mm. I'm curious what camera your using? Good point about satellites and other

Hello: I'm looking for advise on narrow band imaging with a Mach2 mount. I'm a proud owner of the new Mach2 and have done some unguided imaging (only up to 3 minute subs) with a OSC. I'm looking at mo

Thank you so much Rolando! Your advise is much appreciated! All the best, Scott Oh by the way..... I love my Mach2 mount!

Really cool information Roland! Would you by chance have any data to share with TEC140FL with the QTCC? I'm early on trying to fine tune my new TEC140FL with a QTCC and ZWO ASI294MC Pro camera to mini

Thanks Dean! I'm going to try this out next time out. All the best, Scott

But captain I'm giving it all I've got.... I can't change the laws of physics! Rolando, This is an amazing image of the comet! All the best, Scott

Dean I can't thank you enough for your help also. You gave me some great suggestions and very much appreciated. I was like a kid in the candy store watching APPM work a couple of nights ago! I'm going

Sorry about that! It was un-guided at 504 mm. I wish I would have saved the image but it was only one when the clouds moved in (darn). Eventually I'll work my way up to trying my C9.25 Edge HD but not

Marcelo: Congrats on your Mach2. I just did my first APPM run (small model of 32 pts) a couple of nights ago with my Mach2 and did a 10 minute image before the clouds rolled in. The stars were pin poi

Thanks much Ray for pointing this out about the RA and DEC information. I was not sure if it was needed or not when the error messages popped up that it was not present in the FITS file. Hoping to get

Ray: Thank you so much for doing this! I fired up the mount and camera and tried the updated APCC Pro you attached. The Date-Obs. issue is resolved but still not seeing the RA/DEC data in the FITS ima

Thanks so much Ray for any help you can give me! It's interesting that when I first started looking for help on this I approached the PinPoint forum about this issue they pointed me to the imaging acq

It is starting to look that way but wished I could get the ASCOM camera driver in APPM to work like the manual says. I already paid the $150 to get the full version PinPoint as heard this was quicker

Hi Brian: Thanks for the feedback! I saw the same thing. All the best! Scott

Hi George: Thanks much for the feedback! I had seen that too and then they when backwards on the ASCOM requirement to the 6.4 version. Adds a little spice to issues like this when trying to trouble sh

Hi Dean: SharpCap is not an option to use for APPM for the imaging as you mentioned in your later comment. I just happened to have some FITS images that I had acquired from SharpCap last year that I w

Agreed but I'm sure not having any luck! I can get images that I've taken with SharpCap to work through PinPoint but not the ones from APPM using the ASCOM camera in APPM with my ZWO camera. Hopefully
