Default iota cas

Last night was perfect for finally seeing iota cas in Mag 5-5.5 skies from
the backyard. http://www.astro.uiuc.edu/~kaler/sow/iotacas.html

I was amazed at how much dimmer the B companion is
at 60X's in my 80mm F7.5.

Yes, Mick, it was very good night. I too wandered around the Cassiopeia
area.
