Description

A lot going on here for me. I have always had a poor flat field with the Skywatcher Esprit 120ED. I have been messing with my 11 Edge HD and working

out how to get an OAG working on it. While doing this I had an epiphany one night and thought, what if I am having spacing issues with the Esprit?

I'm a slow learner, what can I say. My corners are 100% better and I am really excited to get out and rediscover the Skywatcher.

I also tried the new version of APT with the autofocus function. Very pleased with how smoothly that all went. It was tighter than what I could

get with the Bat Mask.

All in all an excellent night for me!
