A question about AAVSOnet

Hi, I'm thinking to do a proposal to use one telescope of AAVSOnet. I have one doubt about the adquisition of the images: Once the proposal is approved, will I take the images directly or will that process be done by another person following my instructions?

Thanks,

Juan-Luis

Once you've been accepted, and all the details have been finalised (exposure, filters etc.), you will be notified once your images have been taken and are available for download.  You have no control on when the images are taken.  It's then down to you to measure them and report the data to the database.
