I've run that option past my wife a couple of times, both times she just stared at me and walked away....

Sydney town last night was a cracker , I was out til 3.30am on Orion
My guiding was as tight as it’s ever been with the EQ6-R mount 0.48 total with Dec and Ra smooth , there was a bit of dew around in the early hours but my mirrors hung in there thankfully

Well both short episodes of imaging done so far at Eagleview have been quite exciting, the sharpness of the data coming down on both nights, all be it brief, looked on screen to be equal to, or better than, the very best nights I experienced at my former observatory north of Canberra..
so that's kinda promising, and only increases the La Nina frustration, especially this time of year in the southern hemisphere, when all those glorious galaxies in Sculptor, Fornax and Eridanus etc are so well placed...arrrggg
So glad you got lucky though
Mike
