I caught a couple of glimpses of NGC 7006 last Aug from my light polluted backyard with an 8" SCT. I used a 21 mm Orion Stratus.
It was a very faint, ghostly round, and greyish object. Not very exciting to look at, but you need to have an appreciation of what you're looking at. I was quite happy to have been able to catch it! Needless to say, I was unable to resolve any of the stars in NGC 7006, (as you would expect from an 8" scope in LP skies).
