Holy crap! You are well more hardy than us southern softies! Think I would have scarped of to bed after one and a half hours tops. Well done and what a nice report. Thanks. Clem -

Hi Peter, it very portable indeed. It takes a couple of minutes to remove the cage and truss poles and wheel the rest into the back of the car. Bought a pair of lightweight folding ramps to use with the SUV.

Thanks Stu. I added the row of buttons along the bottom to control it easier in the dark. I think the first thing every Dod owner does is modify it!

Tweaking the goto on my big Dob, replacing the Sky Commander with Nexus DSC. Its way more flexible And the SSD slot let’s you easily create your own custom lists.

Looking forward, many thanks. Let you know how I get on and maybe others could join in future.

Wokingham light pollution so bad now it's not even worth trying to observe. 3,000 plus new houses just for starters. Really appreciate it if you could PM me the location of that site. After this lockdown ends I will have to travel to observe from now on. Clem

Great Stu! Love to join you and Jamie. PM me the site when you get a chance, I will try to suss it out on my way to/from Portsmouth. Parents live in Wokingham? Small world. Many thanks

I'll be on my own so it would be great to have an exact spot till I get to know the place Peter. Clem

Many thanks Peter. Is that near the Roman Villa? Clem

Hi all, looking for a good dark, darkish, site to take my Dob to in the South Downs National Park. Travelling from Wokingham. All suggestions welcome. Clem

Great bit of kit. The AYO mount, top notch. Nexus DSC, top notch. The booze, proper job. Very tidy setup as well. Hope you enjoy. Clem
