TOM2
A clear night so I am getting a little work done on TOM2.
There are still the mystery rings around stars with the I lens. The lens
shield does not help. I will have to make up an I lens out of the old
lenses to see if there is something wrong with the lenses. The V lens
looks fine, so this is not very likely. It is slow work without a good
bench setup to test things. One has to wait for a clear night.
The system is getting close to being lined up. I still have to get the RA
adjusted, but I took enough data that I can probably get it adjusted
closely during the day.
Meanwhile, TOM1 is just running and appears to be taking good data. Once I
get things working it does not appear to require a lot of effort to keep
the system going.
