Got my S-II filter today, had to wait for it as it was back-ordered. Now I have the HA-HB-OIII-SII and a clear focusing filter, all the new Baadar 1.25".
Hopefully I will get a chance to try them out soon. This weekend is not looking good, but Friday is a maybe.
Figures that I would get skunked for the New Moon week and weekend. But I can get out with some Moon, so maybe next week?

Congrats, Floyd! So, you did spring for an SII filter, eh? grin You'll find that with these filters, you can pretty much image anytime it's clear, moon or not smile Except maybe galaxy season :-s

Oooohhh...that explains it, Floyd.
I was wondering who had some new equipment. wink
Oh well, at least I got a good look at the conjunction tonight.
Enjoy your new filters.
