Description

I shot this as an experiment to see if I could manage travel imaging with two rigs by myself.  So while my primary rig was busy collecting data on NGC 3251, I set up my 130PDS/1600MM/EQ6-R with an ASIAIR-Plus and shot two hours on the chain.  Everything worked well but I really need another four hours on this target to get a better result.
