Finally found this comet 2/12 AM using 180 cm refractor after looking three mornings with binoculars and not finding it. Near head of Draco right now and well placed in the predawn sky. I could see it faintly in 11X70 finder. Probably would have found it with binos if binos had been on a mount. Not very big, gives the impression that it is coming directly at the observer, not much tail.
