  1. Forecast looks great for tonight, first clear night since receiving my new scope. Just the small matter of a 12 hour night shift getting in the way :(

      Chris I feel your pain, I was lucky enough to get 45 minutes of lunar in as it got dark, home early but work to do for a big meeting on Monday and a full weekend.

      Work, such an inconvenience at times.

      Work sure is, Alan, where's that Loto win when you need it. 

  2. Hi, am I right in thinking you've been after a 19mm Luminos eyepiece for some time? If so ones justcome up on ABS :)

      No problem, glad you got sorted :)

  3. Heads up! Martin aka Grumpy Martian has an ES 127mm triplet with case for sale in great condition for 875 ono. If you're after a bigger Apo it might be worth investigating? :)

    Half tempted myself, but I'm currently saving for one of the wifi scopes controlled via an android tablet like the Celestron Evolution 6, or the new Celestron Fi scopes that are about to launch.

      Hi Chris!

      Just sent you a loooong email!

      Thanks for the heads up.. I'm a bit suspicious of "cheap" triplets to be honest, would rather have one of the older F9 ed doublets which were apparently superb..

      I've also noted that Martin gets through scopes like I get through eyepieces, which worries me a bit...

      But thanks for the heads up!

      cheers

      Dave
