NGC 6118 is generally considered to be the most difficult object on the H400 list and it certainly was for me. I was unable to see the slightest hint of it, despite repeated attempts, through the 17 and 20-inch classical Cassegrains at the ASH Naylor Observatory and at a friend's private observatory with somewhat darker skies. I finally logged it at Stellafane ten years ago using Phil Harrington's venerable 8" f/7 Criterion Newtonian.
