Cornelius Varley Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 Its called "kidney beaning". Some eyepieces are more susceptible to it than others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stvmerry62 Posted April 28, 2015 Author Share Posted April 28, 2015 Also i was just messing around focussing on the aerial which was less than 100 metres away. Is this effect lessened when focussing on more distant objects? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ronin Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 Scopes are intended to be aimed at object a few hundred lightyears away, the optics will be "wrong" for an aerial on a roof.If clear try the thing on the moon, that will give a better idea of how well it operates and any problems in or with it.
