Thanks Dunk. Not such a problem at F4 I suppose, but F10 with the SCT, I find myself binning to get around the noise.

Thanks Lewis! It's going to stop now until about May. The wet season is upon us. I may have to take up radio astronomy until then.

Thanks M&T! The balance of LRGB is still new to me. I'll probably forget how to do it before the sky clears again.

Thanks Peter. Not a patch on you splendid image, but it's okay. The Meade came already deforked so it lives on the HEQ5 Pro now.

Thanks Geoff! I was just thinking it would look better with the 8" SCT with the nice long 2000mm FL, but it would need 40+ hours to do it. That's about all I get all year lol.
