A most familiar tale indeed.
The seeing was not good last night in Sydney, I was testing an new ETX-125 OTA on my Evo mount. No clouds but seeing was not great, Jupiter was just ok at 59x 32mm TV plosl but mushy at 126x 15mm Vixen. At 76x 25mm vixen only fleeting sharpness. Moon was nice and sharp but you could see it burbling at times also. Now I have a really bad sore throat, that's what you get for wearing shorts and T-shirt on a cold winters night.
As long as you can remember the few good nights, then you stick with it. Most of my bad nights have always coincided with my desire to do imaging. But when i just do visual they seem to be better. Maybe our expectations our higher when we are setting up more equipment to image and we are let down by weather.
