This is the test mule after cleaning and checking Both NB and RGB for signs of the filter Ghosts.
This is the very same target as the tests to really check that every thing is really all good. What better way to really see, so I did 5 nights of NB in total about 130 shots per filter. This has been held up by rain and clouds so its far from consecutive nights.
This is a Hubble (SHaO) pallet. One thing that showed up in those 5 night 2 am in the morning mount would disconnect. It would restart straight away if I got the port recognized. Turns out the fitting for the EQMOD cable for the mount was not firm even if the screws where. Two small slithers of a wall plug on the screws the whole thing is a tight as a drum and ran all night.
Now who cant see the chicken running Bottom left cant miss it. Still cant get over the detail in the shot.
