Thanks for that. There is a cheaper PL4240 as well.

The STX seems more competitive with its features. Self guiding is very handy.

Thanks Steve. I was happy it turned out well without mega data.

Always great to see what you pull out of the basket next and I just love those little stars around the end of the upper most arm of the galaxy - as if they are framing it. Beautifully executed as well.
Cheers Allan. The weather forecast looks promising for Sunday night. Perhaps more data can be gotten then.

Thanks John. There seems to be a lot of these unusual galaxies.

I can see you are really going to image a lot of the tiny items out there that are really out of reach for most of us.

Great Stuff.
Thanks Dougie. I have to confess I haven't looked through the 17 yet.
I definitely need to do that.
