I was able to observe it from 10:30 UT 20:30 local till 11:45 UT 21:45 local .
It was then just about on Jupiter's Meridian,eye pieces used 6mm Radian 7mm Orthoscopic 9mm Plossl 13mm Nagler and was seen in all of them
Mist came in so called it a night as unlike Saturday night the seeing really went bad.
An enjoyable hour was spent observing a piece of astronomical history
