Melbourne skies are horrid for anything unless directly overhead.
I've been struggling with Jupiter for weeks now and the seeing has never been much good, apart from april 10 for a very short time just as Jupiter crossed the meridian.
Still not happy with the result as you can't really glean much using a barlow or powermate.
This with a c9.25 and the asi120mc eyepiece projection at 26mm. I chose the eyepiece projection method as it seemed like a compromise between the barlow/powermate and the size with just the scope.
I'm only 8 kms from the city as the crow flies.
