just a few nights ago was pulling 625x on NGC 1535, showing a nice crisp central star and some detail within the nebula's inner regions. Seeing was good, but not truly excellent. I think 800x might be within reason on a perfect night.

Saturn is too poorly placed to use anything above 200x, and 156x seems to work the best.

Can't wait till Jupiter starts riding the zenith come winter
