Thanks Alex for more objects to look for. Hi. I'm Michael from Vic highish elevation, having used my 11" Celestron & EQ8 mount to find a few clusters and nebulae between too many trees. As nearly a beginner and limited view, I've had challenges with alignment. I'd like to do some C++ programming with ASCOM etc, but do you think I should finish my mobile observatory first?

Thanks Stephen & Michael

Michael, to IIS mate!

I am thrilled that your first post should be in my thread

The questions you pose are not the best place to answer in this thread only because they are outside of what this thread deals with. So I've sent you a PM with a reply to them.

Thanks for the object suggestion, Wavy.

Alex.
