This was done by KD2OAM, John, our Tuesday night net control. I’ll mention your comment to him on tonight’s net. Good to hear from you. Ron, N1JXQ

Matt,
I will send Ron an image of my image train and mount setup that I use. I use a Sky Watcher EQ6-R equatorial mount, with a guide scope using PHD2 guide software. The camera is a ZWO ASI2600 MC Pro one shot color cooled camera. I use Astrophotography Tool software to operate the camera.
