Hi all. I just bought an Epsilon 160 to replace the Sky 90 that I recently sold. I was so excited that I just had to try it out, even though I couldn't get to a dark sky site. I set up last night in my back yard and gave it a good test. The light pollution was terrible, but I chose M81 and M82 and forged ahead anyway. Here is the result.
