Thanks for the heads up, I wondered whether there was something lurking around the corner that was causing the proms on the limb, now I know.

I may have been a bit premature calling it AR2741 as I don't think it's been formally classified yet.

Its been classified now, A/R2741 it is. Looks a good size as well, might be a few days before us in Uk get some decent views unfortunately.

Started viewing with ha scope but I found best views of the day we're at 160x white light with binoviewer. Far from perfect seeing but short periods of stability showed lovely detail.
