By chance these images recorded 7 days apart show the same face of Jupiter allowing comparison of features. Some are persistent while others are transient. Note, the image on the right with 12-inch Newt is sharper than the one with NGT-18. I'm still making changes to get the 18 to perform up to par.

Image with 12" Newt still needs less sharpening. Image with NGT-18" Newt is improving after I added about a foot of sheet cork around the truss rods at the mirror end.

Image with 18" Newt not sharp. Local seeing blamed. Image with 12" Newt shows features to be sharp and not bloated like with the 18".

Images showing what looks like one-half rotation of the Great Red Spot
The time difference is 2 days 14 minutes. So an approximate full rotation is 4 days 28 minutes. The rotation is counter clockwise. More images will hopefully give a more accurate rotation time.

The image of Jupiter almost filled the one-half-inch frame of the DBK41AF04.AS camera.
