Hi Mark,
I’m about to pull the trigger on a home observatory with HO-UK. Your video was very helpful. I assume one year in you are happy with your kit?
What was the overall size of yours? I’m looking at a 13x9 with a warm room (I think just 1 foot narrower that’s yours).
Many thanks for any feedback you can provide.
Best
Simon

Hi Simon
Sorry for my slow reply.
Thanks for your message and yes I’m happy with mine. It’s still going strong and now I’ve fitted out the warm room and obsy itself I couldn’t be happier.
I only have 1 concern in that the mount vibrates when I’m moving around inside the obsy. I have learned to keep still when lunar and planetary imaging. Do ask them to check if they’re doing your pier or plinth.
I went as big as I could get away with but I can’t remember off top of my head and it’s just about to rain so I won’t measure. Whatever space you have soon fills up.
I thought UKHO had stopped trading. I’m glad to hear they’re still going. Please pass on my regards when you next see them.
Min the meantime I wish you good luck.
Let us know how you get on!
Mark
