Terry,

I picked one up on Astromart a month back for $900. Brand new, never been used. It was still in its plastic wrapping.

They pop up quite often. Put a wanted ad on there and someone will contact you.

Wow, by my reckoning then you're resolving detail down to just under 2 arcsec. Seeing must have been excellent for those nights - darned impressive from suburbia!! Looks like that RCOS 10 is a keeper!

That's really remarkably sharp. A wander across the "pillars of creation", lovely work!

I am really overwhelmed by all your kind comments. Thank you all for that. I am really hoping that we get favourable weather for imaging in the future. The skies over Melbourne have been overcast for an eternity. Once again, thank you for your feedback.

Terry

Excellent image.

I found trying to get a guide star through the filters to be a bit painful at times, so I sorted out the bits to get my OAG working again. With it in front of the filter I could guide much easier. Maybe this might be useful for you as well Terry?
