be interesting to see one almost on the meridian (best seeing) an if you say the focus was just a teeny bit off... do you use a focusing mask ?

I owe you a better shot than that Clive....now I see it on an inside LCD
it looks terrible. The dome CRT always makes things look clearer for
some reason.
No focusing mask, only estimated this one but I didn't let the scope
cool enough...at the end of this set it was obviously getting fuzzy.
A quick check of Cartes at 4:30am says it was 45deg up.

Me neither Marc until Clive pointed it out to me.
Small?...I reckon it's huge! I didn't expect it to be this big on the CCD.
