Re: PEC Question

Don't get focused on the ratios and pixel sizes. The point is your error is in arseconds. Your "wasn't guided out" error on your main PE is 1/4"?

your image scale is 2.2" per pixel. that means that your guiding error is effectively 1/8th of a pixel on your imaging camera.?

Personally I don't think you need to care about this at all until you are imaging at a finer resolution

Ah I think I see. Because my ratio of guide to image is about 3:1 then any error in the guider will be 1/3 in the imager

so the 15¡± PE is more like 5 and the 0.7 RMS is approx 0.7/3

This makes total sense.?

Even if I got 1.0 at DEC =0 I am still getting 0.3 or 0.4 RMS on the imager which is still less than a pixel

so only if I decrease my imager scale Will I really need to care about this.?
