By the time I got to Saturn this morning,the heavy dew was taking its toll
(we have had soaking rain the last few days) and I had to push the gain for a few quick monitoring R captures.
Possibly a hint of a bright equatorial feature approaching the CM?

Here is my first Saturn image this season.  Seeing was good today.
The Polar Hexagon was well resolved.  No significant spot visible.

Imaged Saturn April 5th with data covering 1hr 37min’s of Saturn rotation and have some interesting results. There is considerable structure between the edge of the hexagon and the polar collar in the region of the 2018 storm remnant. Of course, this should become easier to resolve as Saturn climbs higher. Looking closely at the 685nm IR animation there are faint bright spots rotating with the hex and virtually in contact with the flat sides of the hex in view during the animation. The bright spot from March 30th would not be visible in these data.
