First light 2022 -- GH5 Testing...mostly fail...
02/27/2022 -- First light for 2022! After months of clouds, bright nights with full moons and temperatures too cold to tempt me outdoors, finally found an night with moderate temps, clear skies and near zero moon. Testing the indi_gphoto_ccd driver with the Panasonic GH5. Still running on batteries (not completely tethered) and connected to the venerable Meade LX200 at prime focus (2000mm @ f10) with an ambitious target (the galaxy NGC 3184) in the northern sky (mount set up and leveled on the back porch). Started with a rough polar alignment with the polar scope -- no leaves on the trees, so no problem seeing Polaris from the back porch. Started ~7pm with setup and initial alignment. Employed PHD2 with rdesktop running on the Odroid XU4 (crashes when running locally via indi). Initial polar alignment error was -9.9' (31 pixels...DEC drifting up) with the ZWO Asi120mc-s through the RACI finder scope on the LX200. Tightend (likely way too much) on the right... polar error mov
