Hi Guys,

The weather is nice here.

I decided to use my ST-10XME in binning 1x1 for the first time with my Meade
12" UHTC OTA.

My target was M51. My 12" OTA was at f/6.9 with the Meade f/6.3 focal reducer.
You could see in my picture coma and a few strange stars, I have again a lot of
problems with the Meade reducer and too with my Bob's Knobs (I decided to
remove them for the original Meade collimation screws, less problems
apparently). I wait again my AP 0.67x CCD Telecompressor from my dealer.

Enjoy !!!

Best Regards,

Florent
