I think Orion would be a great target to get my sea legs with the Astro-trac.
Maybe after doctors and dentists stop messing me around.
Cheers Leo - the great thing about Orion is that it is accessible as a target with pretty much any piece of gear you have, and you can get an image with any focal length lens you have kicking around. With such a small window of opportunity in this bleak weather, its a great target!
