Description

I took 90 of these 5-minute images last night to see if my second Mach2 mount was working correctly. The dec gears have been sticky. I ended up with 74 out of 90 that didn't have each of the stars twice, so it is and it isn't. It's still making little jumps instead of always moving smoothly.
