2nd attempt on jupiter

I realise the skill is in the stacking.... And acuter isn't that bad, accept its contrast is not that good, min 3lux. any advice or tricks ... this is based on 148 stacks, and yet there is s difference between registrax 2 & registrax 3 edited by nikonview 6 in aspect of sharpening and contrast. ...

First attempt of jupiter with Acuter,

When i first brought back acuter, it freezes at every 30- 60 frame, it was frustrating! When ahead and download new driver from STmicroelectronics and manage to capture 100s of frames.
Now , got to figure out stacking...optimally.
Finally got to see the GRS.
This is f20

Found Acuter CCD imager

Got this ccd imager from Robin,
Using only camera directly on c8 (f10), will try with barlow tonight, but chasing large image on 640 x 480 is not easy,
to get on to the box itself is not easy, need guider scope now. :)
90 frames, registrax 2.
been trying with regitrax 3 but not successful.

I got a old green vixen counterweight from albert for $50 :) and it match my gp perfectly,
and it did solve the vibration problem on the scope due to imbalance.

The magnification is (with a d70 prime focus which is about 50mm) about 80. I still think there is some shaki...
