Hi David,

They may be fading. (Not unusual for type II, possibly to come back with strong Balmer P Cygni lines later) I struggled to pick up much with the Star Analyser last night despite getting the SNR up to ~100. Only the broad blend at 4400-4800 was visible by eye and H alpha (just) after processing
