Took these pics last night using SW180 mak and ZWOASI120MC-S.Maybe a little over processed but here they are.

These look great, I'd imagine you would have a fairly good Bortle class in the Hunter.
I am reasonably new to this and wondered what mount you are using with the SW180?

They look great

Hi ,
I’m using an aging SW NEQ6 which was polar aligned about 3+years ago for DSO imaging and still tracks nicely at a focal length of 2.7 metres.

Many thanks Phillip :thumbsup:, seems like a fairly cost effective solution with the SW Mak.

Good images, you still have your 9.25 sct?

Hi, you might remember I posted a thread with pictures , last year, of my successful removal of the dovetail and replacement with rings without affecting collimation. Regards philip

Hi Troy,
Regrettably I sold it and am looking for something similar.
