Saturn in good seeing - April3 UT
Hi
There was a hole in the high altitude winds, so the fine detail was back at last - local seeing was also fairly stable. This was the best seeing since first light with this scope over a year ago and the first chance to give it a real test. It was a pleasure to see fine detail on the feeds and even the blue channel was fairly good at higher altitudes - still some minor seeing induced stacking artefacts, but nothing too bad. Also got some Mars imagery, but haven't had time to process yet - will require more effort than Saturn, since seeing below 45 degrees altitude was not as good.
thanks for looking. Regards Ray
