Dave -- I've been using the ST7/AO7/LX200 12" combination for one
year now.

Previously, I had never obtained very successfull results at f/10.
Since I added the AO7 the improvement has been substancial. I have stayed at f/10 now for a full year and
expect to continue at f/10 for a while yet, as there seems to be no
end in sight to the imaging "challenges" here yet.

You can see the results starting at:

http://www.early.com/~floch/lnai15.htm ---- and working backward in
page numbers from there. Details of each pic are given there.

If you have questions please ask.

Best regards


Frank
