Hey Rex,
Babble on brother! Not saying that you were btw
So this comet Holmes would be the easiest to track down at the moment? I'm keen as to give it a shot. Just thought you needed some sort of exposure to determine if it's moving or not....Ah the learning curve.
Until very recently I was on the same size scope (with a murky front corrector plate) and spend god knows how much of 6 months looking for the Saturn nebula. It was about a week ago I landed this little baby. Only had a 15mm LV giving around x66 so didn't knock my socks off visually but the satisfaction was incredible!
Never give up hey.
