Congrats Alex on the new addition!!
Np's Graham, we have to do it again!! most enjoyable night
Glen,
Barnards Galaxy 6822, Alberio, Kron 3 (Lindsay 8) & Kron 7 (sorry they
weren't tarzan 7 & 9 my mistake), V Aql (carbon star) might of been a couple
of others but I think you have them all listed
Had a lovely time, nice to have some folks over for a change. You guys are
most welcome to come out anytime you want. I think Steve from Casino
was really happy about seeing so many objects. I loved the quote " I see
more galaxies in this FOV than I have period"
regards,CS sunny days
Rob
PS: Glen, were you able to determine whether you could detect N206? I'm pretty sure
I picked it up, and I'm sure I nab it in the 8" on the night previous.

Yes congratulations Alex. Grandkids are easier than kids.
Rob I had 6882 instead of 6822, have fixed it. I saw 206 too.
We saw about 70 objects in 3 hours.
Also had a close encounter with a roo on the way home.
It was 10km S of Casino, and we missed.
And I hear Australia won!
