FSQ106 in US?

donheff

I looked at the front page and saw a Takahashi FSQ106 in the US and was going to try in on the Rosette Nebula. When I went into my dashboard, I didn't find it. Is it still in business? I am not very good at navigating this site. Other than the consoles that appear in the dashboard is there a better way to see what systems are available?

Hi @donheff ,

the FSQ106 in the US began the onboarding process back in June but never finished it. I will reach out to the owner and see at what point he is.

Thanks. I was looking thru the forum for calibration info and found out about outboarding. I didn't realize that's how you bring some equipment online. That's a good idea. I suspect that may also be why I don't yet see Dark Matters calibration info - the owner may need to upload it.

@donheff the calibration files are on our fileserver under the folder OSG44. Just connect to files.skygems-observatories.com using a FTP client (like Filezilla), username and password calibration

Thanks. Why don't you list what pier those OSG folders are for somewhere? I couldn't figure out which is which. I had already connected to the FTP server and took a look at a couple of those folders, but no identifying info. Or am I missing something in plain sight somewhere? I do have what my wife calls "male vision."

Indeed I added a simple fix last night: When going into the Imaging Request Wizard, on the listing of the available observatories, there is now the name of the respective folder as well:

Excellent.
