Hi all, Well, the AN is off and running. After sorting out the "direction sense", it was into tour mode. Galaxies spotted before the moon started to rise: 1097, 1316, 1365, 289, 253, 134, 55, 7793, 7713. Planetaries: 7293 (Helix - good with UHC), 7009 (Saturn), 6818 (Little Gem), 6853 (Dumbell), 1360 (a very bright oval shaped one). Also spotted a dozen or so globulars. Most of the positioning was somewhere near the FOV but not exact, maybe some fine tuning to be done. Initial feelings are that the gadget is excellent. Great to get some scope time again. Cheers, Paul.
