Gday Ken
I can see both
Today is the first day since i broke my ankle i could get out and set everything up safely.
Left my old damaged filter in place then had a look, and it was dim as anything with no detail.
Stuck in the new maier unit and am now blind in one eye
The view is magic, even for a single stack, and soooooooo much brighter.
Using a Meade 13.8SWA, the filaprom is clear as a bell and once you mentioned the central area, i retuned the etalon and can start to make it out.
Wooohooooooooooo, and its supposed to be clear most of the day
Might even try to get out the Lunt80 DS, but thats a lot heavier to set up ( and a tad more expensive if i drop it
)
