Description

This is a substantially cropped image from: https://www.astrobin.com/sf32xg/?nc=user.

The QHY268m data is very clean and makes the cropping possible.

Also first use of an OAG. PHD2 guiding stats similar to guide scope - but not excessive FL and the guide scope was securely mounted so not a surprise.
