Update for NELM.
Getting some idea of the rough ranges under a Full Moon:
inner city 3-3.5
inner suburban 3.5-4
outer suburban 4-4.5
rural 4.5-5.5

Will continue for another couple of nights as still near Full Moon.
If you would like to participate, grab the map below that now has some instructions.
The more data, the better I can gauge the moons effect on naked-eye limiting magnitude. I have a map ready with stars to mag 7 (Crux map 2) to repeat the test nearer New Moon, 19th to 25th May. Will post in new thread later.

Thanks to all contributors, Rob.
