Good to see you got everything going Rick. It was pretty cold and wet by 3am Saturday, I didn't sleep at all, forgot the sleeping bag, just catching up now

I believe Paul Haese has an 8" he'd like to sell ...

The majority of the 10min binned X1 subs have eggy stars and where unusable.
The majority of the binned x2 10min subs are ok, go figure

It could do with some star colour, long subs and binning wipes out the stars. Here's the one I shot at Astrofest last year. The 4" tak just doesn't have the legs for it, it really needs aperture.
