Thanks John, I appreciate your comments.

The Mewlon has an aperture of 180mm (7 inches) and I think that I’d probably require an instrument in the 10 to 12 inch class to pull any detail on Uranus. The M180 seems quite happy at F24 with the x2 Powermate, but when I tried an x4 Powermate (F40) the image was way too dim.

Cheers

Dennis
