Updated solar setup

I set my gear into summer mode, while there was a large sunspot group rotating into view. I installed a JMI motor focuser into my TAL-1 and piggybacked Coronado PST with it. JMI doesn't fit tight to the tube so I had to patch it with tape to prevent sunlight from entering inside the tube. All stray sunlight inside tube would result in major loss of contrast.
