Good luck with getting things going.
Thanks - and you're right about an observatory.

If I had an observatory, the whole process of setting up and packing away would drop from 20-30 minutes to 5 minutes. It would be much easier to justify the whole process.

But I don't have the space or funds for an observatory right now

Thanks Mike - nice to hear from you.

I was actually going to contact you and speak about image processing. I know you've been doing lots of experimentation and documenting your process and workflow, so I was going to find out some hints and find out what has changed in the last 2 years!

And yeh, #5 is a killer.
