Thanks 😊 I used my Skywatcher  Ed80 bought on ebay, Baader NB filters bought on here plus Heq5 guided with qhy5ii. 

Camera was Zwo 1600 mono which I really like using.

Many thanks Alan. I feel like I'm getting to grips with it all a little better. A fascinating journey over the last couple of years. Sometimes unbeliavably frustrating and by turns rewarding. I will stick with it. 👍
