About an hour and a half of subs before clouds rolled in.
Brisbane has had terrible weather for what seems like eternity but this Saturday night does hold some promise. Would love to get more than 6 hours in one night.
I have the Testar pier Extension for the CQ350 but with the setup below on the standard CQ350 tripod it’s still a little bit too close for comfort. I’m thinking I’ll just slide the scope forwards little bit further in the saddle that should provide just enough distance and perhaps a little out of balance in Dec but that might work in my favour as Dec is a little loose on this mount anyway.
Was exciting to play with something new.
