Hi Calton.
Thanks for your comments and sharing your experience with the Hamberger.
I expect that you are better placed than most to capture M31 ...but wait until it is around at a more convenient time...I was impatient but happy to get started..I hope I can have everything set up within the next couple of months to give M31 and M42 a decent go...perfect PA, guiding, distance to sensor perfect, focuser working, set up for darks and flat frames etc etc...folk probably think I am slack but if I didn't work with the various limits in problems with gear and missed parts of processing I would not be doing what I like...which is no more than getting pretty photos for my enjoyment.
I was woken by a search party this morning at 10 am..seems I have not been answering my phone or looking at messages...even honking the horn and shouting did not wake me ...they thought I was dead..but I wasn't..honest.
Please set up have a go at M31 you should mail it better than most.
Alex
