Thanks Mike. These days a quicky for me is just one night. That frame is only very slightly cropped to align all the channels.

Generally I've been getting the sizes from Hartung (second edition) so they are probably visual.

I recently imaged it's neighbor NGC 1808 &
found after looking at this pic on flickr

that I could have just fitted both galaxies in my FOV.

cheers

Thanks Allan. That flickr image sure is wide field! I could probably mosaic 1792 and 1808 myself if I had the patience because they are only about 1 degree apart.
