Ving,
I had a quick look last night using my binoculars 7 x 50 to see if I could find the triangle as shown on the map, I had no problem finding that then moving in the direction of the pointer star I located the Stargate and just below that
Jaws as described in Astronomy 2007.. I believe that M104 is just next door to Jaws.
I think my initial search was to far from the double stars in Corvus, and I am suprised how close every thing is. Much to re-learn.
I hope to get the scope out tonight but have had heavy dew last couple of nights which almost ruined my image session of Saturn. Anyway thanks again, I now feel I am on the right track.
