Thanks Doug & Carl! I was surprised how much stellar resolution I got. Though not as crisply resolved as Rob Gendlers version - through a 14.5" RC (here) - much of the detail in his is present in mine! I can only imagine what my Tak would do with one arcsec seeing!

Cheers, Marcus

...?...split two point sources of similar brightness, the centres of which are 1 arc sec apart...?

That would depend greatly on the resolution, but for all intents and purposes, assuming Marcus runs the setup at F/11.7 with the extender. Yes.

haahahahaaa

... don't forget exposure time, brightness of the point sources, guiding and diffraction (airy disk diam)! I hope I get the opportunity to find out one day though!!
