Hello,
I have only been using skytools for 2 days, so forgive me if my questions are idiotic.
I have a fair bit of the sky obstructed at home, and the clear bit is roughly west-north-northeast, that would correspond to 270-0-70 degrees (horizontal coordinates of Alt/Az).
It is, therefore, important when selecting new targets that I have that into consideration.
For now I haven´t introduced the data for the obstruction.
What is the best way to do so? When I choose to display in target list some vey obvious objects like Arcturus or Altair, the Alt/Az coordinates displayed do not seem correct. There is probably some tweaking I am missing.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks,
Rita
