PGC 48896 & 11 others

G'day all,

Another PGC FOV. Only down to Mag 18.0 this time, nothing fainter listed in TheSky for the area.

Not as nice this time, had a gusty breeze on and off, mixed with periods of still air and dew requiring me to use the dew tube which acts as a nice sail in the breeze.

I was aiming for (and had scripted) 4 FOV's, but after the second the autoguider failed because of the gusty wind, so it gave up. Oh well.

Now I'm really wishing I had an AO7, I'd like to see what that'd do for the sharpness of these 0.88 arcsec/pixel images

Roger.
