Yes John. Very dim indeed and with 4" of aperture, you have to go long or its just too noisy. Cant wait for my RHA to arrive....that should do it some damage in half the time.

So, are you going to continue?

cheers
Martin

Yes indeed. I'll go 50 hours in Ha to see what what more is there.

Oh yeh I knew that, two automated observatories in two hemispheres no less, 24/7 imaging, you're a very lucky man ..I'll keep plugging away locked in the 80's ...at least I don't use film any more
