Thanks guys,
Mike,
I used co ordinates in Cartes to drive to the field from the main Y of Virgo, then used
a pic from a NOAA page link with a similar FOV.This pic.
The NOAA pic btw is from the 4m scope at KPNO and shows the jet as well.

Incidentally, the star set I have in Cartes got me in the right FOV anyway so it is not
much of a challenge. Easily found. I will spend a few more nights on it and see if I can
squeeze out the jet as well.
I would love to do some spectroscopy on it Ken, that is something I would like to dive into at some stage.
