 Yup, seeing may be part of the explanation, George.
 
 Also many astronomers talk about "sky darkness" as something DISTINCT from 
 "transparency" - perhaps the difference I've noticed is between dark skies
with 
 poor transparency, versus bright skies with good transparency.

I don't think this would be the cause for what I'm experiencing? As often as I
observe, you would think that I would at sometime see a variety of abilities
with the LM and noticing the milky way. I usually get to the observing site
before sunset to set up. I take my nap during sunset, but often will glance up
to see the milky way with the LM I normally see it appear at...around 5.2 or
5.3.
