Lord, Todd, are you SURE it was a 4.5"???

And if so, Jeff, how come you haven't shared THAT observing log with us! A feat 
like that would sure be worth advertising, I'd say. :)


BTW, Shin, but there is ONE log of Stephan's in the IAAC so far - from me, with 
a 20" f/5 under fairly dark skies. It's at:
  http://www.tiac.net/users/lewkaren/netastrocatalog/msg00114.html

My advice, Shin, is that the best way to find out if it's visible in your 20cm 
is to go to a DARK, DARK sky - and try it! And of course, whether you succeed 
or fail, we hope you'll let us know. :)

Clear skies and good luck!
Lew
