aye, im that good

M13, M92, M65 and M66, no tracking, no GoTo, my EQ doesnt work so i slew manually like an alt/az. I have no finder scope, although i do have a red dot, skies are getting darker, but not fully dark...am really impressed. I used 'turn left at orion' to help me, although going from an entire sky, to an aFOV of 1.2deg is a big change am buying a dob soon so i will have my finder!

Nice work.

Of course, I could trump that with 7 galaxies in a single FOV (in Virgo, where else), but that was with a big finder scope and properly working EQ mount, and C8 with 68 deg FOV EP.

Great work with no finder scope. You clear out the Messier list in no time once you get a proper finder scope.

Nice going - I'd be lost without my intelliscope push too

I did 55 M numbers the other night in 5 hours and my head was spinning. It did feel a bit like cheating though
