Managed to catch a 3 minute gap this morning with some fair seeing. Only enough time for coarse focusing.
150mm, 2.5x powermate and DMK cxamera.

Yup. I just saw something that looks like that. Actually, that was the biggest and by far most obvious sunspot I have ever seen. And that was with only a Single Stack Lunt 60mm. The clouds only broke for 10 minutes in total, but what a spectacular view!!!
