Subject: Saturn through 3 inches and stacked barlows


Hi everyone - glad to see some activity after all these weeks!


I offer this only as an experiment - wanted to see if I could capture a usable image of Saturn 

on my 3 inch f7 TV Oracle using two barlows in tandem, a 2x Orion Shorty and a 5x TV 

Powermate with about 14x image enlargement - similar image scale as what the 8" SCT guys 

are getting.


Still lots of noise, hoping to be able to turn off overdrive when imaging much brighter Jupiter.
