Yep all weekend, but only one night with some clear skies and that unfortunately reserved for sorting the PME, which I can say is now sorted.
Dave, I will try to follow up soon but I think it will be a month yet before I get another chance at imaging with the 12. I want to use another camera with the scope which is more suited to the narrow field of view. Fear not though, I will get onto this as soon as I can.
I have since withdrawn the sale of the GSO. Initially my thinking was that I wanted to recoup some monies expended but in the end I just decided that this field of view is inbetween the 12 and the TSA. That would suit for more the middle sized objects. So the sale was withdrawn. Besides this is a good little scope and someone I know locally might want to use it from time to time.
