Thanks for the support and advice

Yeah, I just thought, I have a planetary camera, there is a planet, let's shoot it!!

I understand what your saying.
I have pipp, I will give it a try! I am able to process a ROI in Registax I think, but that didn't seem to help when I boxed around the small dot of Mars.
I had every mm of extension in use with the barlow and focuser wound right out, but still couldn't get a focus. Maybe an extension tube available on Bintel would do the trick? It's getting pretty long though with all that in place.
Thanks.
