Subject: IR/UV filter...

Hi Milton & others,I`m wondering if the lack of the above filter on my IS DBK 21A F04.AS 

would be affecting my ability to acquire stars in the camera window of Astro IIDC. I`ve tried a 

couple of times with my NexStar 4SE (as it`s easier to set-up) but haven`t had any success 

with more difficult objects. I`ll have to have another go with Jupiter as I acquired it 2-3 

months ago although quite overexposed with little chance it seems of adjustment. Now that 

my Firewire port has luckily started working again I can devote some funds to a Baader filter 

by the end of the month! Mark.
