Thanks Justin, glad you saw the humour in the situation

Thanks JJJ, I'm not known for my patience at this time of the year, but perseverence will pay off in the end...

Thanks for putting some perspective on this Rick, I'll pull my head in now

It can be done with a OSC ,however a dark site and lots of integration time would help. Just make sure Antares doesn't photo bomb your field with streaks and reflections

Here's a three minute sub from IISAC, even taken with the Hyperstar at F2 it's very dim.

Keep at it
Hey Rod, mmmm Hyperstar f2 now you're talking

Cheers everyone, really appreciate your support and comments.
