Suzy, when I first got the 8" SCT twenty years ago,the GRS was very prominent but today even with reasonable magnification in the "16 it can be a very elusive target
Last night I only caught it for a little while in between the clouds and sometime reasonable seeing it was not an easy target
The lack of the SEB did make it easier but not that much
Not much chance of any observing tonight by the look of this cloudy sky
Cheers
