Description

A friend loaned me an Antlia Tri-band RGB Ultra filter so I decided to give it a try, not sure what to expect.  I setup my Redcat 51 and ASI183MC under fairly decent Bortle 6 skies although a half moon rose around midnight.  I had heard good things about this filter and was not disappointed.  The filter performed well controlling two bright stars with no halos and giving good contrast in both nebulae and did not seem to care much about the moon.   A definite keeper but I have heard that their quad band is even better.  The chase goes on.
