I am what 6/8 miles away from you and I have had cloud. beautiful during the day blue skies then tea time comes and the cloud builds.

Brilliant I went out at 10.30pm and took this and thought no chance of getting the scope out.

Only thing is I have a 2" 28mm and no space.

Brilliant we will have to meet up when we get a good night.

Wow very spacious never even thought of them. will they go to the astronomy site nears Bala, I know you have said before my Vectra would not go up it.

A Warm Welcome to SGL

You should not be running a extension lead off another extension lead it is a serious fire hazard.

The ring Nebula (M57) The Blue Snowball (NGC7662) and one I visit every time ET cluster (NGC 457)

It is very easy to put the password back in your only forgetting your home wifi. When I started to use the dongle I had the same problems, I looked online and this was mentioned so I tried it and ever since I align the scope with that app put Sky Safari on and do a session 3/4 hrs without loss of signal or disconnection.

I found if you go into wifi settings and forget your own wifi because that will be stronger than the Synscan one and it will try to connect with that one, thus disconnecting from the synscan.

If you dont mind could you send me a few photos please, really appreciate it.

Thanks Neil when I am closer to buying one I will do just that and get some expert advise.

I was going to buy a shed put it in there and wheel it out when using it I think that would get around that hopefully.

I need a bigger scope. I really do I am thinking of selling my 5" and saving extra for a bigger dob.

A warm welcome to SGL

I need a bigger scope.

Brilliant great glad you saw M3 and your scope is going to perform really well for you.

Wow some really nice objects there things I will never see in any of the scopes I have now. Great read thank you for posting.

In ten years I've had two nights like that. So enjoy them to the max.

Great session nice read

I got convertors as I did not want to buy usb dew strips when I already had some. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/255172530846?_trkparms=ispr%3D1&hash=item3b6977d29e:g:en8AAOSwahRhDEH5&amdata=enc%3AAQAGAAABALplGocQRX8aPQ%2BHBWxf6MBzDZ6Fo9d9CG8i1FZlsvmJPums7zN4jm%2FZUFOKcSHUHI0O2IAiz7D%2BqRhRxYKkBOv3nqN%2FBYyXaGogadf8S0T8QG7EDVL0KJwIFMRsDv8WSYcW6QKQe195zJ1O7aYrC3YLJAXNjAmuSdAK%2F2exFcu6cawzu%2BFs1SbYbkkSMPmBtcTCPrzE8fmW2x%2B5EYXW5d7TYqbsqkmAdpBS3mBsC%2BNFFJtn90CtqcDX%2BSKqa4GtPQuJBRco882wkwEe1Mxke6z07eTfOUA3U%2BkDpk2tSUiIlEFsNz8wZcU8a2obiYWEdigsIoGvsNH49DN2ws7vPp4%3D|tkp%3ABFBMwrSZj5Fg

I use a Anker 20000 mAh/72wh power bank runs two dew strips easily for at least two sessions and wasnt that dear. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/384293397266?epid=5035118538&hash=item5979abe312:g:YJAAAOSwja9g~Fh4

I wish it only took me a few minutes from start to finish of setting up it takes at least 50 mins.

A warm welcome to SGL. I to like to observe double and multiple star systems.

Yes I have thought about that I was going to buy a shed just to put it in and wheel it out when I am using it.
