I reckon my new 8” would only deliver a fuzzy blob at best so I’ll leave these faint rascals for you blokes with the heavy artillery

Thanks Martin- thanks mate I appreciate your comments- yeah it’s very rarely imaged even though it comes up nice and high for us. Small and dim certainly makes for a challenge from the suburbs but I reckon you could hit it with your 10” down the coast if you were so inclined.
