thanks for another great report! Looks as if the seeing is improving towrds the morning during recent nights. I got off work early yesterday, was home by 10:45pm and toyed with the idea of going outside, but I was a bit tired and couldn't be stuffed collimating in the dark and dealing with the wind.
It's times like this I really, really wish I had a 90 or 100mm grab 'n' go refractor!

I've tried to spot NGC 247 in both my 4.5" and 10" reflectors. In the Millenium Star Atlas it is shown with large, inviting symbol. But I haven't seen it at all, even with the 10". Absolutely nothing.
