Thanks Ray,


I wasn't really thinking it would turn out as well as it did with the time I spent, though conditions were rather nice for a change.


Why would you not expect to get results like this.....

Hi folks,


I dusted off the scope last evening and made a pass at The North American Nebula. It has been since May 4th that I powered up the observatory and everything worked the first time! I was able to grab about and hours of photons and really wasn't expecting much.
