Description

Good seeing and transparency at 0.4-0.5AS guiding but nearly full moon and Bortle 7 urban skies plus a low altitude for this target at this time of the year (and only 15 x 3min subs per filter) - so I am happy. No tilt adjustment yet (will install my new AGS Photon Cage soon) and manually focused using the stock focuser while I await my new Optec Hercules focuser/rotator.
