Best view I had was early in the evening (IIRC) Saturday the 30th(?) before the sky went to heck.
It was on Alan's 24" Star Structure. There, me and Charlie Wicks saw 6070 and two companions.
IIRC each companion took a position to the 6'oclock'ish (in a Dob) of a star that made a chain to the east(???). Not sure about that. I am using the photo above assuming east is left.
I think looking at the photo above you'd rotate it 170 to 180 or so degrees clockwise for the dob given the date and time. I believe we were seeing PGC 57350 and LEDA 1175374 because we could see the stars labeled 14.4, unlabeled (in the middle), and 15.2 Those were the chain I remember
At least that is what I recall. I forgot to to Alan what EP he was using. Saturday went to heck very quickly thereafter and Paul did not get a view. After that, it turned out to be a Star Party night.
Sorry I am not an expert observer with directions, distances, mags, etc.
