Quick M38Posted By jeff OMeara |
Hi Charles,
I was looking at your image and noticed the lines running down the center of the image. The reason that I noticed is that because my ST-10 has developed a "bad column" right smack dab in the middle of the chip. I found it unusual that that would happen. I had a power failure while the chip was cooling and ever since then I've had this effect. It is not a big deal and it can be removed with appropriate dithering during image capture and/or with various data rejection techniques in CCDstack. My question is, does your ST-10 also have a "bad column" right in the middle of the chip?
cheers,
Jeff
