Re: Can't Find An Object.

Thanks Wolfgang.
I had pulled up images covering the whole area using Guide and
these did not show what I am imaging. I guess it could be a
reflection or perhaps my over 1' fov is picking it up with the long
exposures. Strange I can image it on two different nights and not
see it on the dss images.
