anyone with a 16" inch scope or bigger can start looking for It tonight
at about 2am till the sun or the moon get ya, and the next week or so will be better. Smaller scopes might get it if you can track comets with your mount. don't be scared to turn your ISO or gain up. Large ISO does not increase noise as is popularly believed, it increases signal and noise equally. The biggest problem with big ISO is blowing out bright stuff because of limited dynamic range of your sensor and following amplifiers. This won't be a problem with boris until he passes through the southern cross early in the new year. Stacking will improve the signal to noise, so take lots of shots. Smoke will be a problem for some you.
