I hear you on that peter.. there is nothing worse than the 1 - 1.5hr set up, only to have to go through the 1.5 - 2 hr tired as all hell pack up with nothing to show for it all.... I have found with planetary imaging that persistance is the key to great results... read, and re-read capture and processing guides...

a 2x or 2.5x barlow in a 10" F/8 will give enough image scale to get some nice detail, and the aperture will give you nice resolution.. now what you need is seeing to match..

Stick in there mate..
