Try twilight
Hi All,
For those of you having difficulty with this somewhat testy target, I suggest observing in twilight. One of the chief problems is the large magnitude difference and the brightness/glare of the primary.
I've seen it dozens of times in 'scopes down to 10cm aperture if the (1) Seeing is very good and (2) It is fairly bright twilight -- that cuts the glare from the primary.
Best,
L.
