> The 12" LX 200 at f/6.3 was used along with the SBIG ST7-E and AO7. The
> set point was -23 degrees C on the 2nd (12 L images each of 600 seconds
> duration [120minutes]) and, -20 on the 3rd. for the RGB images. There were
4
> red images of 600 seconds each, 4 green images of 600 seconds each, and
> 4 blue images of 900 seconds each. Track time was 0.10 seconds for the L
> images, 0.2 seconds for the red images, 0.8 seconds for the green images,
> and 1.0 second for the blue images.

> The L images were un-binned at 9 micron pixel size. The RGB images were
> binned 2x at 18 micron pixel size.
