Thanks guys. The issue was simpler than I had thought. It wasn't a guider issue but rather a polar alignment one. What eludes me, and that's not...
I'm using my trusty STL-11000 on my new Mach 2 mount and tried using ASCOM Direct to eliminate another cable. Having some issues and wanted to...
So now that the system has changed somewhat I'm trying to see if I can get designed back focus as near as possible. John tells me I have 9-3/8 to...
Thanks Colin. That gets me to wondering about powering our cameras via Pegasus to eliminate dangling wires.
Another thought. Looking at the power supply drawings for both the STX and STL, are they possibly interchangeable. Seems the plugs/wiring are the...
I have a used above mentioned system with HA, L,R, G, B filters mounted but I get the sound of filters moving ever so slightly. I took these out...
Thanks Colin. Will look and see best approach. A good friend has some of those paper washers on hand.
Got it Doug, thanks.
I'm looking to make the cables to power these cameras directly from the Pegasus Powerbox Advanced (STL) and a Ultimate Powerbox (STX/FW5-STX)....
Actually I had the base that John Stiles had gotten for the AC4040BSI for me to test drive here and with that bolted to the STX and the adapter...
With the run of bad weather I've managed to get some things done on my system. I'm at the point that cleaning the filters would be appropriate but...
I stand corrected, this OAG has 2.7" dovetail.
Thanks Colin. Apparently if I get that plate that screws to the FW5-STX then this adapter or similar should work.
Apparently if I can find a plate that screws to the FW5-STX then this adapter or similar should work. So if I'm thinking about this correctly I'd...
Actually maybe I've just woken up from a very bad dream but I'm chasing the wrong topic here. What I really need is a way to attach the FW5-STX to...
At this point I think the only hope I have of using the STX-16803 is finding a 3" adapter for the Don Goldman Monster OAG. As best as I can tell...
So after spending the afternoon tracking down parts and pieces it boils down to finding an Astro Don MOAG adapter that will fit the STX-16803. Any...
Thanks Doug. I'm beginning to think John may have had an adapter made for the 3" Pyxis as the adapter plate I have won't fit in the Pyxis, it's a...
This is really weird. I went into the dome and took off the STL-11000 camera assembly which includes the Don Goldman MOAG all the way back to the...
The FW5-STX filter wheel has two sets of threaded holes, 4 that hold the plate on and 4 larger spaced holes that I have small bolts for. Not sure...
