Just caught it Geoff, the published co-ord's have been a bit hit and miss for some reason, had trouble finding it with GoTo at times.

Done a couple of time lapses but they're a bit time consuming to assemble especially with the Moon and passing cloud, did a 100 frame continuous one that I'm only half way through and a 50 one frame spaced at every 30secs that I haven't even started sorting, should be OK to catch up when the weather breaks, I see we're promised the tail end of hurricane Humberto next week

Looking forward to your time lapse Dave.
