You've got to get that baby to a dark site. Imagine a 10 hour image with that light gathering ability at a dark site? I notice even my TEC180 gets terrific data fast at my dark site compared to my rural skies at Kurrajong with the CDK.

Thanks Greg...yep dark sky site (will probably happen..but acquisition of a rural plot is not on the agenda just yet) or simply go Narrow Band.... besides you need FL for galaxies....anything under 2000mm I'm thinking is being delusional.....these guys prove that point well
