A very interesting thread, I agree. I can usually ‘see’ Centaurus A from my backyard, 5km from Adelaide CBD, with my 12”DOB but it took me about 3 years and a GOTO to find it in Adelaide. Like Alex et al, lower power and panning definitely help as does having found it once. I had/have no luck if I use my 150mm MAK!
