I finally managed to track down a Phillips SPC900NC Webcam. I had no luck locally (Tried JPL Displays etc), found a bunch on Amazon, then they would not ship to AUS. I found another mob listed on Amazon who shipped it to me in 7 days.

, price inc shipping and fees $83.34 form Netdirect Distribution, LLC,
Now its off to modify and attach my Mog adapter and with some clear sky's and luck post some images.

Good find, Michael. To think they used to be over $150.

What scope will you be using it with?

I plan to use it with my 10" newt and see how things go.

Is it EQ mounted or on a dob base?

EQ, C10-NGT (The one I am thinking about selling as per my email) so it should work well.

ah definitely. Get a 5x powermate for image scale!

Thanks for the tip, any suggested brand, or is the one at Bintel suitable.

The 5x powermate (from Televue) is the best.
