Hi what is the normal way to collimate a mak cass.? I tried it on a startest but seeing conditions are never allowing me to determine if I have arrived, I think it is way off now (both primary and secondary). It's a rumak design (STF Mirage) is it possible to do it in a livingroom? suggestions much appreciated
best wishes Jan Adelaar
