SIMPLE = T / file does conform to FITS standard
Which I know is a bit of a deal breaker as they have to conform. So that’s where I am. Any thoughts please?
Hi Kevin,
I don’t understand the problem. It all looks OK to me. Here, for comparison, is one of my FITs headers after it’s been calibrated. (Captured in SG Pro, calibrated by AA8).
Cheers
Ian.
