Description

I had two mediocre seeing nights and one good night, yet so few subs for an object

that was above 30 degrees between 9PM and 3AM. I kept having problems, making mistakes etc etc. Trashed 30 subs because I didn't do a good framing job. Learning the sequencer in NINA caused me some hardship despite all the videos and help files I read. Then I fell back to sleep during a meridian flip and lost subs because of a tracking error in PHD2. I'm still happy with what I pulled out, but my goodness what a "learning experience"

Night two several days later, I added another 36 x 300s frames of OIII and HA using the l-Enhanced filter.
