Re: Window Astrophotography 2019

I've managed to add a couple more hours of OIII and SII data on the Running Chicken, totalling 9.3 hours so far.

Window Astrophotography 2019

Good day to all, I'm looking to sell my baader stronghold tangent assembly, which allows micro adjustments to be made for loads up to 7kg in piggyback mounting.
