Thanks Doug!
Hi, thought I'd ping again about the utility of having the FITS file capture the HSP stacking subexposure duration. It really would be nice...
Thanks Colin, I just installed and will test soon. Hope all is well, Mark
By the way, in my defense of the shorthand HSP, in MaximDL, the readout modes are referred to in the pull-down menus as: "High StackPro", High,...
Hi Colin, I understand how H'G'SP works in general, and have been using it that way for a while. I'm generally using 30 sec subs for longish SHO...
Hi, for those interested, I created a 90 second HSP dark master with 90 sec minimum subexposure and a High dark master with 90 sec exposures, and...
I am going to do an experiment tonight testing this, I'll post the results. Mostly just intellectual curiosity about what is going on under the...
Thanks, I thought that might be the case. I like the AC4040 as is anyway. Hope all is well, Mark
Hi, I have an AC4040. I also use ACP. When using ACP, observing scripts allow for selection of the readout mode, High or HSP, etc. I've run into...
Doug, when you get to that point, would we be able to switch sensors into an existing AC4040 if desired? Just curious. Best Mark
Hi Bob, I did that some time ago when I was doing exoplanet transit follow up. For that work flats rotated 180 after a meridian flip were ok to...
Travis, please give my regards to my old scope next door! M.
Yes, I've found that your suggestion works well. Dithering does seem to be important, and as you mentioned to me at AIC, using a larger dither...
Hi, I have a less obvious middle line in my master flats too, and the obvious quadrant pattern in my darks, but I'm not seeing it in the master...
Hi, in the FWIW category, I've done a good bit of experimenting on this issue. I get pretty good results for pretty picture imaging without...
Hi Doug, Have you thought further about adding a line in the FITS header that shows the HSP subexposure setting? I usually use one of a couple of...
Yes, I'm sure most won't change it often. I'm still experimenting with it in connection with finding my maximum acceptable unguided imaging...
Doug, in the FWIW category, since the fits header doesn't show what the dark frame HSP subexposure was, if you are unsure about what the HSP...
Thanks Doug.
