Hi guys

Laser collimator is collimated. I use it for my 12" dob.
I suspected something is wrong when I tried to look at Omega Century with this refractor and I could not resolve it at all? My 12" dob gives much brighter view of Moon and Saturn. OK, its bigger aperature, but I thought I could see Omega Century with this refractor, or can I?

I know this size refractor is for Moon and planets only, but big DSO like Omega. Plus blue_skys that I got it from claims she enjoyed looking at Tucane with the same size refractor.

I do have Chesshire too and will try it over weekend.

thanks

bob
