Knighty, Louis thank you both. I haven't bought the binoviewer yet, so some more window shopping to be done .....

Looking at a pair of 20mm eyepieces for a binoviewer. The candidates are the Vixen NPL or the Starbase Ortho Does anyone have experience of either, or have had opportunity to compare the two? thanks, Neil

That's nice. Emma Chissitt?

😥 indeed. Now I have to find something in which to store and transport mine. Did I mention I got an AZ100 week before last? 😀

The dense white sheets.

Did you just assume its gender?

Can anyone tell me the name of the white foam in which the AZ100 is packed? Thanks.

I have an older UNI 28 with a single set of clamps. I've just bought the set of additional clamps. There are no instructions. Do I take the 'foot' off each leg in turn, move the existing clamp upward and install the new clamp where the old one was? *Scratches head*

Anything like this?

I'm scouting round for a suitable dark sky site to use on our sadly infrequent clear nights. Are there any formal, or informal groups meeting round here? And where's best to pitch my tripod? Many thanks Neil

I still have my Astral 60mm refractor, though mine was on an altaz mount.

I may face the same issue. The finder is now in a very finding-unfriendly position. Where did you get the firmware? Thanks Neil

Thanks that seems to have fixed it.

It takes time date and location from the device. They don't need inputting.

My first experience with Sky Watcher. And I am struggling. I level the scope and point it north. I select a star on which to align. The mount shoots off in a seemingly random direction. I manually centre the intended object, and the mount is still clueless. I've tried it with one star and with two. On an iPad and an iPhone. Can anyone help? thanks, Neil
