Hello,
This is my best Mars so far! This is really getting fun! I still need to work on my processing though. I just picked us a "new to me" C9.25 to compliment my AP130 and this is the first light :-) Thanks for all of the great posts and help going on in this group!!!

Chris,

I also have an AP 130 and a C9.25. Which scope gives yu better Mars images? Have you done a comparison? I have found that it is really worth the time to properly collimate the C9.25 and the Bob's Knobs makes the collimation really easy. I have not had a chance to compare the C 9.25 to the AP 130 on Mars. I will probable get around to doing the comparison this weekend.

Regards,
