Yep and Yep

Tho the BOM forecast for Friday is possible showers, and Partially cloudy for Sat and Sun.... aargh!
Finally got out last night at 11:30

Got the Astrotrac setup and got PA as close as I could.
Tested for widefield at 105mm with a 5 min sub, no guiding, perfectly round stars. Good enough.
Sadly tho, the sub was totally washed out with light pollution.
I then reduced to 2 min subs.
Took 30 subs(1 hour) aimed at Rho Oph. The result was worse than a single 3min sub of the same region from Nannup

One powerball......
