Your review brings a question to mind regarding the "white light"
view. How does that WL view compare to a Baader solar filter view
(assuming you've looked through one of 40mm aperture)?


Its about the same except that faculae patches don't show up quite as well as
they do in the slightly bluer Baader filter. I don't often de-tune the PST
that far, as it is vastly more interesting to see what the Chromosphere is
doing. Clear skies to you.
