Thanks guys, I'm surprised too that there are still periods of good seeing in the middle of Canberra winter... This is our first winter at Murrumbateman so I really don't have any history to look at, but there seems to be a trend of stable temperature and good seeing around 9pm every night that lasts about 30 minutes to an hour. After that the seeing goes down the drain in a big way.
So I'm trying to be ready to image at 8.30 each night, and just hang around waiting for the good stuff :-) last night (Monday night) was a writeoff, there was a high haze that never lifted.
Next year is gonna be fun... permanent observatory, two scopes, synchronised capture... mmmm.
cheers, Bird
