In keeping with Don Wyman's timely suggestion I am introducing a new thread.
Without identifying my brand of bino (heaven forbid) I would like to know how many bino users with SCT's in the 10"-11" range are actually able to resolve the E and F stars of the Trapezium under about #4 seeing conditions.
I am using a pair of high quality binos, 19mm and 24mm Panoptics, and a properly collimated Nexstar 11. Under #4 skies and moderate transparency I am unable to resolve E and F. I do have mild to moderate stigmatism and do not use eyeglasses when viewing. Are my aging eyes the problem?
Just curious if others experience this degree of difficulty.
