Hi Gary: Thanks for the welcome, it's good to be back. The moon shouldn't be a problem for a few days now, at least until it swings into the morning sky in a coupla' days, it's mostly the darned low elevation. By the time it's really dark, the comet's set. Congrats on the new grandson! I never would have believed it myself before my own daughter was born, but its true that the most amazing thing in the universe doesn't require a telescope to see!

Welcome back Chuck, hope all is well.
I have viewed the comet several times and it is spectacular. The skies have been less than ideal, in fact they have been moonlit and hazy. It takes a pretty good comet to peek through all those adverse conditions. My 15X70 binos are doing a fine job though. I need to get to darker skies but many things tugging at me right now including a new grandson... B)
Good to hear from you again friend,
Tnx es 73 de n7zi Gary Liptrot

Hello to all my Utah-astronomy friends, I'm back on the list!
Despite better judgement, considering my AOL v3.0 browser (utterly contemptable crap; but hey, it's free for a while longer) viewing comet Ikeya-Zhang these past two nights has made me "homesick" for your company!
Anybody else looking at this cute little comet?
Chuck
