You're a champ mate. I'll let you know if I get to observe tonight. Still very cloudy. Murphy's law applies, as always!

Just a reminder:

Thanks again to you and everyone on iceinspace who've helped another n00b take advantage of affordable East Asian optics!

p.s. There is some very minor dust and spotting on the primary and secondary - my scope was on display for a few weeks in the store fully expanded. I'm leaving it for now until I learn how to properly clean these mirrors (preferably without disassembling the scope, for the moment!)
