Greetings. I have posted an image from March 2nd, 0200UT. This is composit of 12x60 sec. exp. I think it does show a small bit of nebulosity or tail....

Dear all, in MPEC 2003-F54, there are observations of these comets made with the 1.06m KLENOT Telescope (MPC 246) in a presumably 90 seconds or less exposure...
Dear Luca, ... I took C/2002 A2 on 2002 Dec. 13.84 and 2003 Feb. 2.70 UT, but no moving object was detected at the predicted position. The instrument was same ...

Dear Luca, ... Sorry for any confusion. For bright comets, say m1 < 17.0 or so, I use 120sec instead of 240sec. 120sec exposure is used for 'really-bright' ...

Would it not be a wiser plan to do a site survey first - In AZ, NM, or CA - where all other major facilities go up, than pour megabucks into one observatory...
Slightly harsh call Mike. Actions speak louder than words and with 484 comet observations this year alone (amongst other astronomical observations) I feel that...
