Hi
The last Saturday it was an opportunity for my
to take some pictures since the sky was clear after
a long period of cloudy nights.
The night found me to stay in mountain kitheronas
and trying to setup the 216XT as auto guider.
Or I am doing the things wrong or my 216XT simple dont work.
I think I am doing the things wrong ..
A was able to see all the guiding stars clear but
216 brightness was never grater than 7-8.
Only on very bright star I had successful .!
Is that true "if you can see it then you can auto guide ? "
Finally have any of you a set of successful parameters for the device ?
As you can imagine I had Another lost night ...!!!!
Note : I am using the Celestron off-axis guider.
Thanks
