Nice work Terry - that's a very prominent Ha line there

I might give this one a go myself

Sadly no joy. The target is actually 13.89 in V. With 10 x 600sec I managed some data but it's too faint to process. I'll have another play at the weekend but I think I have hit the limit from among the bright lights of Sydney.

That's pretty dim. Noe for a bigger scope.

I suspect you are right - but with the PMX coming (like Christmas), I doubt a new larger scope would pass unnoticed.
