    Hello and welcome to SGL, Just post your images right here and ask away…..
  2. dweller25
    Sounds about right 🙂👍

    Great report 👍

    Mewlon 180 - light, excellent contrast, never dews up, 1/20th wave optics.

    The “Bartholomew” must be awesome if it can correct the ‘chromatic aberration’ in a TOA 🙂 Or is it marketing hype ?

    I’m pretty sure he will get a grasp of the situation very soon 😁

    Well, the weather forecast is not good for the next week. But as Arny said “I’ll be back” 🤖🙂

    Tak use quality felt that does not shed 👍

    Aah but you have the C145 so it’s wash 🙂

    I don’t want to be seen favouring any of them so have gone to a neutral avatar - no fights under the Christmas tree that way 👍😁

    That’s a wonderful drawing Mike - I have been looking forward to seeing what you could do with the FS128 👍

    I was always super careful with mine because I knew it would hurt - they are also called drain covers 😱
  14. dweller25
    Oh nooooo - is the Tak cap OK ? 🤣

    First drawing with the TSA120, this is the raw drawing done at the eyepiece. Io is just about to disappear behind Jupiter. Europa has just finished transiting, it’s shadow is on the far right of Jupiter.

    Didn’t feel comfortable with just a single carry handle, so….. 😁

    Yes, they look great, this photo helped in my purchase decision 👍 They belong to a Takhead, cannot remember his name though 🙂

    Yes, the TSA120 Weighs the same as the Mewlon 180. The Mewlon 180 works well on a Vixen GP, the TSA definitely does not - even using a Berlebach UNI tripod. So the TSA is now on a Vixen GPDX/Berlebach combo which worked well on first light earlier this week 🙂

    Correct, an 8” Dob is not ideal for everything but is almost ideal for most things 👍
  21. dweller25
    Well, 3300 miles away I had EXACTLY the same frustrating view of Jupiter in identical conditions to you through my new scope. The forecast here for the next week is 100% cloud cover 😕 At least we both got “first light” 🙂 Having owned an FS128 I know how good the views are 😁 did you see any tone difference compared to the TSA102 ?
  22. dweller25
    Thank you 👍
  23. dweller25
    And this is the DZ, TSA120 and the FS128
  24. dweller25
    @Joe G Not my photo but it shows the difference….

    Fully assembled and ready to go……
