Aaaah... was hoping to see the squiggle, but never mind, just seeing the Quasar in itself will be very special. Thanks Sab.
Could be challenging, but I have my new Stellarview finder now to help me, yaaaay! Oooh and the Night Sky Observers Guide. So all set.



Bojan, re-resurrecting old threads are great to do indeed as so much to learn that's just buried there hey!.
