    Great images from your 120 Neil 👍

    Hello, I currently have a Berlebach UNI 28 tripod for my Vixen GP and GPDX equatorial heads. I would like to put a Rowan AZ100 on this tripod, but the Rowan has an NEQ6 fitting. Does anyone make an adaptor that would allow me to do this ?

    This is easy - buy the TSA120 👍

    Cool 👍

    Oh yes, very nice 👍 Limb darkening looks fine to me.

    @neil phillips - If you continue to use that scope on the EQ5 I may report you to the RSPCEQM 😂

    The planets are getting there, slowly…………

    Apologies - you do have the original Vixen setup not the modified one
  12. dweller25
    That entire plate is a modification by Astro Systems of Bedford (Rob Miller). It makes the mount stronger and sturdier than as supplied by Vixen. The black knob is for adjustment.

    Why do you want to remove the stars? In my opinion the images with the stars look far better 🙂

    Where did you read that ?

    Hello Chris, a good 12” Dob would be the way to go for DSO’s - they are great on the planets too. Skywatcher Dobs are good but heavy, Orion Optics make great mirrors and are a little lighter.

    With a rear mounted fan a 10” Newt will cool significantly faster than a C9.25 and is significantly cheaper too

    Are you happy with the weight that you will have to move - significant even with long handles ?

    Brilliant - I have been many times to Florida but always on business and never got to see a launch 😔
  19. dweller25
    Great noise it makes
  20. dweller25
    As others have said, looks like an old Russian TAL, should have great optics 👍

    10th launch - wow
  22. dweller25
    As Elvis sang “Return to sender” 😁
  23. dweller25
    Orion Optics Dobs are much lighter than the far eastern ones.
  24. dweller25
    Great idea, the best planetary scope I had was a 10” Dob 👍 It will certainly outperform a 120mm refractor.

    So far ….. Skywatcher 120ED TS 115 triplet And how about an OO 6” F/5 Newt 1/10th wave - 4.5kgs
