Thanks Mike!
The break was unintentional for me really. Changed jobs and had 2 kids and literally had no time or money to be with the scope..
Life has had a very unexpected but positive change recently with another new job where I have considerably more free time and substantially more expendable income. So I figured it was time to come back!
The new rig is all mount, but it's humming along beautifully.
The new software and improvements in computer tech has been an incredibly pleasant surprise, I have a 4 core 8 thread machine with 16gb of ram that runs on 12v and has the same footprint as a large mobile phone, maybe twice as thick as an iPhone, but once I'm all setup I can be on the couch watching a movie, monitoring the imaging session on my tablet...
What a time to be alive!
I hope to post my next image in January or February (whenever I feel the data/snr is strong enough).
