Thanks Graeme and Nathan.
Now I understand the jiffy mod!! The problem I have is that even when I lower the gamma and zoom in on the planets features I cant tell by looking when it is really sharp focus and I think that is either due to the seeing or maybe the collimation of the scope is slightly off.I havent had good enough seeing to collimate the scope well enough to use metaguide. When I try to use that the red dot bounces all around so I cant figure out which way to turn the collimation screws. Just one night of really good seeing is all I ask!!
