Scientific paper

We report on three new versions of the ultra-narrowband, Fabry-Perot filter and discuss their performance, optimised configuration and use for monochromatic studies of Solar phenomena. The characteristics of high stability and tunability, together with ease of automation, allow convenient, remote, robotic operation and this is being utilised in the OCA project of the University of Sonora, for which preliminary results will be presented. I trust the technology to be reported in this paper will be of particular interest to amateurs and, because of its dedication, to the symposium. Don Trombino was very involved in co-ordinating the abilities of amateur Solar observers with the professional community, believing, rightly, that they are capable of equally good work given the right equipment and, prior to his untimely death, we were discussing the possibilities that the new versions of the automated filter/telescopes might have in developing the contributions of amateurs even further.
