Good morning, would you let us know if any jobs in the pier queue have now set and the data that's been taken so far can be sent or the whole job can be removed please
Regards

Steve,
The following jobs of mine are still rising:
2011 Lacerta Molecular Cloud
2019 LDN982
2075 Iris
1969 - part of the Orion Mosaic, is still above 25 deg for the moment in Nautical dark ans early astronomical dark. It is not the most exciting part of out mosaic and could be stopped if there is no realistic prospect of completing it before Orion sinks too low.
I agree, I did not notice anything that needed removing on this pier myself either :)
I am inclined to leave it be for now, I would suggest putting no new jobs in as yet as we will clean the optics while in Spain
We are also going to try and fit a new electric wheel with some Dual band filters for when the moon is up while we are at things on the trip, so the camera angle may change a tiny amount after its all be put back together!

OK - happy to wait until you press the go button.
I think dual band filters would be be interesting. A number of people with RASA8s are getting some lovely images with an OSC camera (often a 2600MC) and L-eNhance, L-eXtreme or similar filters.
Realising we were getting a bit low I have been looking out suitable targets for the Spring/Summer season. So once we are ready I should be able to put in half a dozen immediately.

Yeah, because of the nature of the scope and the speed I doubt Optolong will work without mahooosive halos :)
I am a sharpstar/Askar dealer I have gone with the new Askar 6nm colour magic filters in HA/OIII & SII/OIII 6nm for a number of reasons below;
Now whilst we are fitting them on this trip we are not 100% sure they will work with the E180 as its a notorious halo monster, so it may simply be an exercise in futility but its an itch I feel is worth scratching now higher quality filters are finally coming out
PS
Similarly while in Spain Pier-11 is all getting the new Antlia HA/OIII HA/HB & the just released last week RBG Filter
