Bruce Johnston's Astronomy Pages
Having completed my observatory, I'd like to share with you some information about the construction of it, and some of the images and information that I have acquired from it. Follow the links to the subjects...
My roll-off-roof observatory
CCD images from the observatory
Strictly `Tekkie' stuff for the LX200:
1. Finding the `sweet spot' on the LX200 gears
(Improving `Go To' accuracy on the LX200)
2. Controlling the LX200 telescope and the
SBIG ST7/ST8 camera with CCDOPS
3. Make a quick and easy Hartmann Mask.
4. What is 'Drift Alignment'??
5. Repairing the R.A. and DEC drives on an LX200
6. Isolating and fixing 'Goto' problems on an LX200
in Polar mode.
(Including a fast, accurate NEW WAY
of Polar Alignment, using 'Goto'!)
