Thanks Dennis. You know the trouble with the C9.25 is that is just does not have enough diameter. These images are a little grainy because I am only using 350 frames out of 436 frames captured in 40 seconds. I have the gain up nearly at max and cannot get any more frames. The image scale is the cause of the problem. At a smaller image scale I could capture more frames but then less detail would be showing. So the only alternative is a much larger scope. The SDM is great but it has to go out in an unsecured part of my yard, not good if I want to leave it out there. Other solution is buy a C14. More light, meaning more frames, and ergo smoother looking images. Also more resolution too. I reckon if I was in say Barbados I could get a lot more detail out, but here in Adelaide I need a much larger scope.
