Excellent!

Its amazing watching the motion like that. Every time I view Jupiter I cant help but think of a planet that big having a 10 hour rotation period. Not to mention those moons !

[neil phillips]

Cheers Jake. Hope its inspiring others to try. Its not easy this year. But the challenge can be half the fun.

Nice one Neil, some good details visible already.. hoping to get first light with the 300p myself tomorrow morning.

Sounds good Craig, I hope you get some stable air. The big beast likely wont like it down it there. Air cells affecting larger optics ect. If it fails to deliver. ( The blur factor will likely be pronounced. ) Your 8.75 might be a better bet. IR 685 on a high moon will likely be a better test. But i could be wrong. I just remember what it was like to work with my 300p. They can be stubborn to do what you want them to do i found. As a guide with how bad it can get down there check out my other post.

Yeah I'm not expecting much to be honest, just dying to use it seeing as I've had it nearly 2 months now and it's been sat in the garage just taking up space! Windy app is forecasting fairly low jetstream speeds so definitely worth getting out in any case.
