Thanks Steve, its good to hear from You.

I had to pull out some ordinary gear to get to my mount tonight and I thought I would check if the Comet was visible with that also. (I don't want newbies to think they need expensive equipment to see this.)

So I also had a quick look with an achromatic, F6.5 100mm using 2 cheap plossls (25 & 20mm EPs). The Comet was clearly visible, but was faint of course.
