Thanks Chris,
Good to see other users with small refractors. What FL is your scope? I have a go often with my little ED 80. Best results for me is using an ED2 12mm EP with 2X Barlow. The moons are tiny specs and I'm lucky if I see more than two...if any at all...(sometimes) I also like to use filters. My mount is just alt/azi, so I'll often just let Saturn cruise on by slowly.

Hope to hear more from your scope
Dave
