Hi all,

It looks like the occultation track of Leone tonight passes over my telescope at PixelSkies in Spain.

Having a C11 with an SX694 TRIUS CCD, I can’t take short, rapid exposures a la a CMOS camera, so my plan is to let it drift across the FOV. I will experiment first with am R filter but I suspect it will easily saturate. Then I will try an SII. All slightly off focus I think.

Any other tips?

Cheers
Ian.
