I've been wanting to redo this one for a while now (my previous version can be found
here). Towards the end of my imaging (back in June), I experienced a collimation problem that got progressively worse and made it near impossible to get usable RGB stars. Unfortunately, my attempts to fix things ended up making things way worse. I somehow really screwed up my collimation so much that I couldn't even diagnose what was going on. Afterwards, not only were my stars horrendous in the corners, but even center of field data looked fuzzy. Thus, I haven't been able to gather any data with this scope in months and haven't had an opportunity to use my new Chroma SII yet. I ended up sending it back to Explore Scientific. I should be getting my scope back next week though!
