  1. Hi Andy, currently that’s my issue, up and down stairs, I live in a flat about my clinic so the only options I have are viewing in the attack though my velux window or transporting it each time to a venue. Not sure which reflector model matches up with your Dob, I will have to do more research.
  2. Just a question on your Dob. Do you use it outside of your house or do you transport it in the car to go to less light polluted areas? Asking because I am looking at the Dob and I live in a light polluted area and I don’t have a garden or a useable back yard (too much light from house lights and motion sensitive cameras and the back street lights).
  3. this looks really good i like it, where is this one available from?
  4. Yes i saw that there were various ones for northern and southern hemispheres as well as different Latitude, thats why i listed mine in the original post. i wanted to make sure i was getting the correct one and suitable for myself.
  5. So I have been asked by my work colleague what I want for Christmas, and as I am just starting to rekindle my astronomy inters I thought I would tell them I just wanted a good Planisphere. As I live in Padiham (Lancashire UK - Latitude - 53.801510), I wanted to know which Planisphere would be best for them to get me. So throw your suggestions this way and I can tell them which one to buy me. Cheers John
  6. I am intyerested, i dont have any scopes but i am willing to come along and see whats up there. Keep me posted. John
  7. Nope not yet, funding at the moment, and sorting life issues out.
  8. For me its either the attic or outside somewhere where there is no light polution, i dont have a garden and the back yard is very small and the light polution is terrible, at the moment its Bino's throught the windows (still dipping in and out yet). John
  9. Hi there John, i am a tad late on this thread but i also live in Padiham, no telescope at the moment due to finances and no where to use it in my house (no garden, light polution) working on an idea for the attic though, just a simple set of bino's.
  10. Hi there Howard, i am a tad late on this thread but i also live in Padiham, no telescope at the moment due to finances and no where to use it in my house (no garden, light polution) working on an idea for the attic though, just a simple set of bino's.

  13. I know i am late to this thread, but i am having my house redone and i was thinking of viewing from the attic, i just wanted to ask JonnyAlpha, how did it go?
  14. I have been deciding on my first telescope for over a year, I am drawn to the dobsonium but I will probably buy a decent pair of binoculars first ,help and advise is always welcomed. Anyone with advice on binoculars I am listening. John.
