Hi Paracelus, welcome to SGL Wishing you clear skies for when your new scope arrives! Z

I'm by no means an expert, but sounds like you found Arcturus and not Saturn. Arcturus is very bright and is yellow-orange in colour. Saturn would be unmistakable through your EP. Easy mistake though if you can't Polar align, both are in the South sky, but Saturn would be further West than what you were viewing I think. I had similar problems, but if you download Stellarium, it should help you locate things more easily

Welcome to SGL Good luck building your observatory, make sure you take some pics and show us all when it's done! Z

Thanks for the well wishes guys. If I wasn't hooked before, I certainly am now! As expected, the clouds have been playing with me and offer about an hour of decent seeing a night. But I've had a few good nights observing Saturn this week, so I can't complain! Hopefully will get some good conditions again soon and see what else I can find. Thanks again, and wishing clear skies for you all, Z
