Hi:
Had a chance to image the Sun on Sunday, then it clouded and rained.
Just had time to get the usual CaK and Ha FD´s with the 102mm f/9 Meade with a CaK PSTmod and the Solarmax 90-DS.
Thanks for looking.
Eric.

Nice disks Eric! I'm hoping to be back up and running with my scopes later today - handset died on my mount (again!) at the weekend so now looking for USB control by the pc instead, see how I get on with that.

Super full discs Eric, the AR on the limb looks very bumpy in the CaK

Re: Sol from the 24th of June 2018.
How much contrast in your images, Eric. Are you using your Meade at full aperture ?

Alexandra, Mark, Matt, Derek and Raf:
Thanks for the kind comments.
As for your question Raf, yes I use the 102mm f/9 Meade achromat at full aperture, I made a PST CaK modification which I use with that scope.
Good day to all of you.
Eric.

Thanks for the info, Eric. Your refractor shall be very well corrected if it is capable of giving such good images in calcium light
