Details:
For days, my Lunt 60 failed to tune in the Ha sun. Decided it might be the 100 degree tempterature had expanded the ethalon outside the tuner's range, so cooled the OTA inside overnight down to 80 degrees, and here are the results!
First hot is with See Star S 50 and 2" Baader ND5 astrosolar this morning. Big spot to lower right is AR 3719, and string above it is AR 3720. Two spots left of it is AR 3724 and 22 (top), and old aurora maker AR 3723-24-27 is back on SE limb. Only northern spot is AR 3721 at top.
Second shot is with Lunt 60 DS with lots of actvity. Tried to increase contrast with noir setting on my iPhone 12s in third shot. Last shot zooms in on the aurora maker as it comes over SE limb.
