raymo,

I do agree with your statement. I am also doing this on a nightly basis, we live on a farm and we have chooks, every night before I go out to lock them up I look on programs like The Sky X and Cartes du Ciel, look at what I know and target a couple that I want to know. Then when I go out I start from my regular spot Orions Belt and star hop to find what I hopefully was targeting. When I do this I also re-cap on most of what I know so far, or at least the main ones.

I am enjoying this method, have not yet created a complete constellation visually yet, but I am sure it is there somewhere.

Thank you for the advice.

Cheers
Andrew
