Well thanks for the vote of confidence guys but I don't know if I can repeat that. Beginners luck
It's true that lower altitude for the inner planets is a problem. I have an ADC on order. I nearly bought one second hand last year as I recall there was one going through the IIS classifieds at the time but I was imaging Mars which was alright at 60 degrees or so and though nah... I'm good. Silly man
Going through the other Mercury and Venus stuff. Testing different settings in AS!3 and Registax. IR is still pretty bland in IR on Venus but UV as a heap lot of details.
