Share your info Alister. We have a concam and ccdsoft program from
Robert Nimeroff running all night, its black and white and works very
well. Still have issues with our domes fogging up, not sure what to
do , we have a fan setup and a 5 watt heater in there, but still
getting fog.
We keep getting nice plane images, and we did pick up a few Persieds
but no fireballs yet. We run from around 9:00 pm and have it set up
for 4 minute images, which should take it till around 5:00 am.
Unfortunately its all manual , and we are looking for an automatic
setup, running under linux.
So, what software and hardware are you using Alister?
Anyone have any suggestions.
