IMAGING SETUPS (Sky-Watcher SolarQuest Mount)

Another observing session with the SolarQuest mount and cloudy skies. After first alignment (Heliofind) it helps to cover the solar sensor. Tracking was great for about 3h

Thanks Mark & Eric

I'm loving the SolarQuest. It works like a charm even with cloudy skies

Yes Mark

It is approaching Portugal as we speak. Winds of 150Km/h are expected in coastal areas
