Description

My new ALPY 600 spectrograph arrived a couple of days ago and I will be using it together with its calibration and guiding and SPOX remote control modules to take some spectra of stars and deep sky objects into the future.  For now I wanted to get my camera to focus on the slit image of the instrument and took a daylight 2D spectrum and also a neon bulb spectrum for that purpose. Here I've calibrated the neon bulb spectrum.  It isn't the bulb in the ALPY calibration module, just a neon power strip on/off switch bulb.  It is a beginning...
