Observing Log for Mike Durkin 3/28/2009 about 2:00-3:00PM Locust Valley, NY Transparency: 7/10, Seeing 4/5 Temperature: about 50 degrees Equipment: Coronado Hydrogen Alpha PST First I tried to see if I could make any use of the binoviewers. I set up the binoviewer along with a pair of 30mm eyepieces. I was not able to get the image to focus. I also tried with a barlow, but that would not work either. So I saw quite a few prominances on the edges of the disk, although none were too big. After tweaking with the tuning circle on the PST, I noticed that there seemed to be an active region on the bottom(northern) part of the disk. The sky then got very hazy, so even though I was able to see the Sun, it made looking for details in the PST a little difficult.
