Then I will start trying. Like we have discussed too, once you get some good seeing I will come up for a couple of nights to do some imaging. Should be fun. If we can get Anthony to your house that would be even more fun.
No probs Paul, Georg Fischer contacted me last night regarding the level of SED's he is detecting winding down. I only have another couple of weeks before I lose Saturn, courtesy of a palm tree, so I will make every effort to image when I can.

Last night was even worse than the night before but I was still able to image a brighter plume within the storm which is of significance to other researchers who are still applying for time on various telescopes to image these brighter plumes in IR.

It certainly would be a most interesting exercise to have your C14 alongside both Nemesis & FRED imaging in the same conditions and is a worthy gaol to work toward, a mini planetary imaging party. By then both Nemesis and FRED will have 16" Mark Suchting mirrors in them.
