On Sunday morning I attempted a shooting session using the Lunt telescope in Lunquanado mode, in triple stack.
Shortly after midday I retreated indoors, both because the turbulence worsened and above all because it was starting to get very hot...

Excellent disk, Lorenzo!  Pretty amazing how well you have tuned not only 3 etalons, but 3 unmatched etalons!

Thanks Warren.

I too am always surprised to see how this combination works. I must have been lucky.

A mix of three different brands...

I mean, I have a triple 2X Barlow assembly that I use for WL, but this is WAY beyond that! grin.gif
