At 200x using a 7.5mm plossl that I have could just get hints of possible structure but nothing definite.

Thanks Malcolm, the sky was particularly good that night so was able to use very high mag for most of the time
what magnitude sky do you have Mine are regularly 6.5 or better plus using a 16" scope does help a bit
Love your reports by the way
Cheers
