Michael, The Tim Horton's I'm referring to is across from the Hunt Club Golf Course. It's right in front of the Days Inn which is next to the Hunt Club...
Michael, I try to be there at noon. We can hang out for a coffee of so in case someone else wants to join in, then we'll head onto the Base. For those who...
Err.I'd like to come too. By the landmarks offered in the previous post are unfamilliar to me. Anybody got something I can look up like an address or a street...
... Here's the coordinates from one of Ken previous postings. If you just paste them into Google maps, it'll show the proposed location. That's what I'm going...
- I'm thinking of going also will leave in about 40 minutes They must be around Breadner Blvd which runs between Canadair Street and Uplands Drive in...
Hi David! Too bad, we had fun as usual, and I had the BEST solar view yet in Ken W.'s fine set-up!! Richard ... From: David Waterman <davidwaterman@...>...
Hi Andre, Thanks for the links. I've tried deconvolution on the planets but I find it almost always generates artifacts. Perhaps it is because the PSF is...
Hi Allen, The price-to-performance, like anything else, comes with diminishing returns. The ToUcam at $40 gets you 90% of the way there, the Imaging Source...
I'm about to restart the poll to decide we're were having pre-RASC dinner this friday. Rob, you said you'd like to add a mexican restauarant to the ballot. Rob...
Hi, I'd just like to say that when I got my Visa bill, I discovered that Liangs had charged us twice (2 different amounts). I remember that when we paid he...
... Hi Attilla, I haven't been able to find one close to the Museum yet, so I guess I don't have one to suggest at this time. :) I'll keep my eyes open for new...
Ok. I've restarted the poll so we can decide were we'll have dinner this friday, july 4, before going off to the RASC meeting at the museum of science and tech...
Thanks Rolf. It seems like there is no one camera ... just like there is no one telescope. Yes the moon is of interest and I'd like to play around with...
Hi Allen, 16-bit significance only comes into play once the images are stacked. Only the Lumenera does better than 8-bit (up to 12-bit) but I never use it in...
Hi Rolf, In a low-light situation, I think the extra resolution of the Lumenera comes in handy. For instance, I did some experiments where I set the gain so...
Hi Andre, The best noise performance of a circuit will be obtained when the gain is applied at the earliest stage possible. If the gain was set too low, then...
Hi Rolf, Thanks for the feedback. I've found 80% to be too high when imaging with the Lumenera and usually keep it under 50%. Bright or faint, there seems to...
Hi Andre, When you say that you find 80% is too high, is that because the histogram will saturate during processing? If that's the case, then maybe the...
Hi Oafs, The CSC shows clear skies and reasonable seeing tonight. It might be a good idea to capture some videos of Jupiter in preparation for the imaging...
No, the 80% problem seems to be happening at image acquisition time. The raw images start to appear bloated and unnatural up at that level. Maybe a good...
The CSC is looking quite nice for tonight. Hope folks manage to get out and do some observing. I'm out to dinner with friends, but will be home by dark to set...
... I find that the image seen on the laptop screen at capture bears no resemblance to what it looks like when I process or view in Virtualdub or Mediaplayer,...
I may haul the CDK out to work where I have a decent horizon to try Jupiter. Trying a luminance channel doesn't make much sense, with a whopping 2.7" of...
When is the workshop Rolf and sign me up. Gary ... From: OAFs@yahoogroups.com [mailto:OAFs@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of Rolf and Linda Sent: July 3, 2008 1:43...
