Shouldn't be possible to remove the 5 images limit when solving a batch of images?, when I shoot, say 60 images, of an asteroid trying to find out the light...
... Of course, I understand your point. Astrometrica was designed and implemented with astrometry in mind, and for that, five images is usually more than...
Dear Users, I have just uploaded Version 4.3.3.352 to the "Downloads" section of the Astrometrica Web Site, www.astrometrica.at. I have to admit that it does...
Herbert, that's a great step forward. Thank you very much. To select motion and center coordinates separately is a great help at large FOVs with many objects...
Hi Group, I have altered my setup here, and now I find I can't do auto reductions on my images. Astrometrica will do the reduction if I manually match the...
Hi Group, Just writing to say that my problem solving my images has been fixed by Herbert. Once again a big thank you to him! The biggest problem appeared to...

Hi Alan, Are you using the latest version? I found the same problem with the latest version of Astrometrica. I haven't changed my setup in any way but ...
Hi David, Yes I am, now that's strange. Everything was working quite well until the latest version. Any suggestions Herbert? Cheers David Best Regards Alan In...

Jay, ... SkyMorph has a lot of them. http://skyview.gsfc.nasa.gov/cgi-bin/skymorph/mobs.pl As you can see in the residual blocks on MPES, almost all...
... I don't think it was the catalogue you used. I just tried the UCAC2 instead of the USNO-B, because I have the UCAC on hard disk, while the online query of...
On the telescope I am using, the image orientation before meridian is different from after meridian. I can read one image with the Flip Horizontal/Flip ...

... Use any program that can import FITS files. It is likely you will find it easiest to use your image aquisition software for this. Flip all images taken...
Jeffrey, ... as the image orientation is specified for each cfg file and usually one is using one cfg per site or setup, it is not possible to reduce a set of...
... You could load the images taken before the meridian, use the flip horizointal and flip vertical commands of "Astrometrica" to change the image orientation,...
Wouldn't it just be easier, tho more costly, to put the scope on an equatorial mount and do away with the orientation problem itself? Derek ... From: Herbert...
Thank you all for your suggestions. I will give it a try. Jeffrey Sue...

Derek, ... I think Jeffrey's scope *is* on an equatorial mount, likely a GEM and therefore he has the flip. Working in Alt-Az is almost impossible as the image...
... I use a German equatorial (Paramount GT1100s) that needs to flip over when crossing the meridian. With Astrometrica I use two separate cfg files (east &...

Hiya All, I've uploaded a copy of my configuration, 5 pics, and the resultant log after processing them looking for 2004 LJ1, for your perusal. You can find ...
What size residuals does Astrometric report for the plate solution and how many reference stars ar in the solution? ... From: "Bob Hart" <bobh@...> ...
On the 5 pics, the ~ plate solution is dRA .16 and dDe .13. Did I read that right Herbert? Least number of reference stars of the 5 was 54. That's all in the...
Hi, ... Are these 5 arcsec what the MPC told you (post-fit) or is this a value from the log-file and thus just meaningsless pre-fit residuals? If we are really...
The plate solution residuals in the log file for the first image are 51 of 64 Reference Stars used: dRA = 0.16", dDe = 0.13 Which doesn't look bad, it looks...
Yep, you guys are right! I just checked the time my HX9 software updates the header with, and it is the mid-point, where I was using the start-point. Somewhere...
