Jupiter at 6:30-7:00 this evening. Caught the Io transit.

Okay its not good but better than what I saw last night.:rofl:

The first one is at 10fps and the second at 5 fps both 75% gain.

Tried some at 20fps but the dreaded onions came in.:P

Funny how the seeing can vary, Lester. It wasn't too bad over here and usually us city dwellers have a worse time of it. A couple of clear nights seem to be on the way. Pretty good image considering the poor seeing.

Ah, blink and missed it seeing... you've got to love this game;)

nice transit Lester, you're probably sick of reading this, but it's still appearing very dark on my CRT compared with most joops on the site:shrug:

Thanks Robert,

I don't mind you telling me, will try a brighten them more from now on.

Also helps to bury the dreaded onion rings, but I am not getting as many as I use to. High gain usually kills em, but not always.
