AR2734 from Singapore

Post by yltansg »

Hi,

I saw it flaring yesterday (8 Mar 19). Was glad managed to get a FD with Borg 76 refractor fitted with Solarscope SF50 DS before the clouds rolled in.

Image

Today (9 Mar 19), it continued with minor flares. Imaging window was longer than yesterday and I managed to put up a C8 fitted with an ARIES full aperture D-ERF. This setup has a PST etalon and a BF10 blocking fitter, x2 barlow and a Basler 1920 camera

Image

This is how it looked today at 10:30 am local time

Thanks Pepe. I am still working on the etalon tilt, focusing and post processing. This setup is capable of better images.

Hi Mark,

It was taken with a 60mm Jason Rotary Power Astronomical Telescope 1000mm FL with a 6mm Baader Planetarium B-CCD ERD mounted inside the telescope followed by a 1.25" 2.4 angstrom CAK filter, x2 barlow and a ASI 174mm camera.

Hi Alfred: what model number is your Jason Rotary Power telescope ? I looked online but could only find a 500 DSM model and a 540 model.

Thank you,

Franco

Hi Franco,

I bought it from a friend in the US. It is the F1000mm model. I also can't find in on the web.
