My first attempt at narrow band imaging using the 3.5nm Antlia filters and the results are impressive. There was a full moon around Scorpius but it had no effect on the imaging session. Lots of wind so many lost sub exposures and issues with the ASIair not working properly. I think the reason is an inadequate power supply, ie the voltage is not high enough.
