I configured the camera using a 15mm Televue Plossl for eyepiece projection. After aligning on the moon, I was able to locate Saturn and center its image on the camera's chip.
I shot 20,000 frames and stacked the resulting images using K3CCDTools planetary wizard. A lot of work to produce the image shown above, but seeing tonight was really poor.
I'll have to come back with one of my longer focal length scopes and try again. But for now, off to bed.
