Well it is no where near where I want it to be but the first image shows off how good the now discontinued FL FSQ really was/is.

No subtractions and I let Max do an Auto on the align so it is definitely ruff

10 minutes in CS, fair seeing and light haze.

I just wanted to see something "LOL" grin

Comments/advise aways welcome smile

John,
If that's "ruff" and rushed, I can't wait to see what you'll be doing with that scope in the future. A really nice and detailed image.
