Hi Adrian,
I used my standard set up 1250mm FL at f6.3 approx. 53 in the stack,
unbinned (I must have left it to it and gone in for a cup of tea!)
and of course my dark sky. (I am sorry but for me here mag 17 is
quite easy I'm afraid)
I did not intend to but I had an IRB filter on as well (I had done
some mods and when I went to remove the filter, I could not get
focus. So I had to replace it. That little extra thickness of glass
made just enough difference.
