    Very interesting video Kurt, I wouldn't have guessed that. Thanks for sharing !
    The woodpeckers around your home are doing some serious work I think 🙂

      Yeah It did not even cross my mind Siegfried. Those woodpeckers love our neighborhood.

    The whole rig is a collection of "single points of failure" 🤣
    Glad it was something simple. CS!

    • @AstroQuest1

      Yeah that is a good way to put it! 😊.

    Sometimes the drama is of our own making! Thank you for sharing with us!

      I find a good portion of the time these issues are my own doing. Cheers

    Hey, Kurt. This is a very good message for beginner and experienced imagers alike: Getting to the experienced stage in astrophotography, does not mean all problems have been solved. You'll be solving problems from here on out. Glad you got yours sorted!

      Thanks James, I thought it would be useful to know that even the most experienced people have issues from time to time. On the other hand doing something so idiotic as this is very unusual and should not be repeated...Cheers

      Yeah, not sure how many other people would something so 'nutty' as I did. Cheers

      Hey Thanks Guy. Just wanted bring it up in case there was any else that did something as rediculous as I did.

      Yes, it always keeps things interesting.

    Yes, keep the videos coming !! I've learned a lot from you and you have a way of keeping things down to a "Normal" level. I'm glad you found the problem and shared it.
    I keep all my images on thumb drives and delete them from the hard drive after I processed them. That way I don't fill up the hard drive. It's weird, the different problems that we have with this hobby.. CS

    • @AstroQuest1
      @AstroQuest1  ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks for the feedback. That is the bets way, delete the stuff when you are done and have a specific backup. I do have that I just kept saving these ones on the hard dirve for some reason. Cheers

    The trials of astrophotography who would have knew eh, glad you got the issue sorted out now though I do keep the remote pc pretty clear but there's always a Gremlin lurking around the corner.

      Thanks Peeb! Yeah I have seen other ways of using the rollers including just having wheels on the top. Some the methods never occurred to me. Cheers

    What USB Hub is that on your scope by your left shoulder?

      @AstroQuest1  ปีที่แล้ว

      It is the SkyTech Powered USB Hub, had it for several years now. It was recommened by Pegasus long before they made their advanced Power Boxes.
