Almost frightened to say it but

The forecast for tonight is looking good.  List of things to do consists of:

  • Perfect my Polar Alignment (using EQAlign software).
  • Record at least one hour worth of PE (Periodic Error) data (again using EQAlign software).
  • Analyse the PE and create a PEC (Periodic Error Correction) curve (I'll use EQAlign to capture the data, PECPrep to analyse it and create the PEC curve).
  • Perform some guiding tests to see if I can push exposures up to 10 mins.

The forecast shows almost zero cloud cover up-to about 0300 tomorrow so time permitting, I want to start to capture some luminosity subs for M31 (Andromeda).  The only photo I have of it is really really bad.

Well, at least I have a plan.
