Don,
The seeing was very good last night, but don't max out your rating system,=
as it occasionally gets even better! I was able to comfortably use my
3-6mm eyepiece at 4mm (350x), but not at 3mm (470x) on Saturn last night=2E=
=20
Again, the seeing predictions shown on the Clear Sky Chart for Phoenx were=
on target, showing it as 4 out of 5, and degrading after midnight=2E
Planetary imaging is completely at the mercy of seeing=2E Here is my imag=
e
of Saturn from last night at about 10 p=2Em=2E
