Thanks for your thoughts gentlemen. I was heartened by your comments about Guinness and little folk in the belfry, Alexander. It does seem an insane idea and I'm relieved that someone of your skill thinks so.

Sooo... I will follow both Michael's advice and yours and do some general impression sketches, experiment with a less complex GC, but still with some resolvable stars, take some time and perhaps make a reticle ep. And use modest magnification. 175X on 47 Tuc under dark skies with my scope would be a bit of a big ask.

I hope to get back to you with a satisfactory result at some time in the hopefully not too distant future.
