Another very impressive report, Sab. I'm going to have to arrange some way of getting to those high mags you're using. I was very interested in Dave's response to your other post about the duration of the session increasing the chance of good viewing. I got up about 4.30 this morning to have a look at Jupiter, but the seeing was just awful in that part of the sky. I suspect some of this is the scope coming out of the shed into very cold air, but it wasn't bad after a while when going for the higher altitudes, so some of it must have been atmosphere. Still, I could see that there was no southern equatorial band. Did look bit odd.

Anyway, congratulations on another good night with your regenerated scope and thanks for some more targets to look for.
