How deep is the pier sunk in the ground? I initially filled in the area around the pier with gravel, but I have since filled it with concrete for a few reasons.
Excellent Dale, just excellent.
If it's not too late, fill the pier with pea gravel. NOT concrete. The vibrations will disappear completey even at high power.

As we were viewing M81 & 82, the guys started kicking the pier to see how well my design dampened vibrations. With the 40mm super-wide angle in my 10" lx200gps, the kicks were almost absent. It wasn't until I boosted up to 125x that the vibrations could be really seen. Even then, they subsided almost instantly.
