  1. Sorry for my ignorance I have tried all the overlay buttons and different combinations and cannot get the Information everybody else is. Can some kind person give me a walk through please
  2. Sorry I will not make it sadly my back has rendered me nearly house bound. I'm on morphine patches and injections every 4 months.
  3. Here are my Revelation 10x42 waterproof roof Prism binoculars.
  4. Yes going very slow tried post a picture on my phone just now would not even load.
  5. Taking 20/25 seconds load a page, not as bad as this morning but getting worse.
  6. Much improved now not got the dreaded circle of doom loading a page.
  7. Going to try that on mine much easier to understand thank very much.
  8. I have two threw the first one in the bin no matter what I did could not get it right. The second one a friend well more advanced than me collimated it for me but he even said done the best he could and it is only slightly out, I know you won't like this but I then check with a Cheshire/ sight tube.
  9. Mine went through to 18% then knocked off could not get it working until son took it home went straight through
  10. Those cheap adapter cables dont work I know at my cost luckily son had the port on back of an old computer and did mine.
  11. My Meade with Skywatcher dual speed focuser.
  12. EQ5 there is no weight in it weighs nearly the same as my Tal.
  13. Just received a Meade LXD55 127 F9. 3 Achromatic hoping give it first light tonight. No finder just a Telrad base lucky I have one.
  14. Wish I would of had my wedge then but I got it in the 150 with a filter and got it in Sky at Night magazine.
  15. http://www.argos.co.uk/product/8242523 That is the only £60 one I can see in Argos but any up to date Tablet will work and being android can load two apps at once unlike IOS. I use my Galaxy S7.
  16. Well tried it out told my phone to forget my WiFi so would not try connect to the stronger signal. Connected to the Synscan app aligned the scope then switched on sky safari 5 Pro connected. Scrolled around the map clicked on object tapped goto and scope went there. All I need is to familise myself better with sky safari to enable me to find objects better but up to now working fine.
  17. I love my Tal I have had the best views of double, triple and multiple star systems with loads of colour. Not had a chance on any Planets yet and more shocking not even turned it on the moon. However I enjoy looking through my 8" reflector spikes and all.
  18. Cracking scope wait until you see the colours of the stars absolutely brilliant.
  19. I posted that for the OP as he was looking at one for £200. I have a Tal 100rs but thank you very much.
  20. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/TAL-100R-4-refractor-telescope/222858808029?_trkparms=pageci%3Abbb7d43c-1c78-11e8-b300-74dbd1808fd7|parentrq%3Adc2028731610a88459a58108ffff7e3e|iid%3A1&_trksid=p2481888.c100675.m4236
  21. There is another one on for a £100 spotted it last night.
  22. I've just bought one not tried it yet I will do in the house. I have sky safari 5 Pro and the synscan Pro app in my galaxy S7. I think I should have no problem connecting both apps it's the aligning part I think I'm going to be stumped with. Hopefully I can work it out.
