I use Corono to further emphasize the prom.
I found adding the SW motor to the 10:1 focuser and the Ha tuner has made things 100% easier.
Interested in your SN comments. I did visual SN search and chart checking in the 80’s, using a 12.5” f5 limiting mag 15.5 just 15km from Melbourne CBD.

This is much appreciated Ken, will look up Corono.
As I had a redundant Moonlite with a motor I thought may as well get the flange to add it to the Lunt. This way I can get away from a towel over my head!
Supernova comments - I am one of the BOSS team members... my own tally is 16 personal from the BOSS total of 190! My best discovery to date was SN2016adj in NGC5128. We are on target for 200 but it's getting harder so need another challenge. Am active in the AS-ASSN supernova project (unpaid professional astronomers!) a lot more than doing my own searches of late. Sun is becoming addictive hehe!
