Thanks Dragon!
Some of the links you gave me were useful!
It confirmed that I seem to be on the right track and approach.
Now If I could only get my CCD Camera back from the manufacturer,
I could keep going with my work, the Skies in the Autumn here in New Hampshire are usually favorable, begining this time of year, Just a lot of dew to contend with, but Im well armed in that dept.
I have also purchased a Refractor Radial offsett guider with full size 1-1/4 ports, and a Toucam Pro modified web camera, and Guide Dog software, for auto guiding, I just happen to have more than enough in focus travel, for that kind of setup .
When I do get my camera back, I should be able to go for really long Exposures, I should be able go for 1 hr maximum subs with my CCD Control software, but im sure that I wont need anywere near that much sub time.

Ill probably be waiting at least a month or more until the Camera gets back from Meade or is replaced.
Thanks,
Dennis
