After not having seen the Sun since December 18th (not uncommon during the winter here), it finally made a very brief appearance again today. The window didn't last long so I was only able to get a quick CaK disk in; but happy enough to finally get the chance to do something again.
Looking at the current state of the disk; I'm not missing much though
Setup: 80ED (stopped down to 60mm), Lunt CaK b1800, IMX178.
Thanks for looking.

Welcome back to the land of Sun-gazing Jochen.
Yes other than that little AR on the far NW, sleepy-Sun is not awakening today...
Thanks for sharing

Hi Jochen,
Well done and yes not much there. Normally CaK reveals early when something is going on.

Thanks Terry/Rainer.
The Sun can wait a bit until spring comes around here (better weather); no worries.
