(life must have taken over).
I have purchased some equipment and have experienced some difficulty in setting up and alligning my eqatorial mount, and also have no idea of where to look in the night sky. I have heard that star parties are a good thing to attend because they allow you to meet other amateur astronomers and pick up tips.
Does anyone know of any that are scheduled?, or are there any knowledgable people Living in or near central london who would be willing to teach me how to use the equipment?.
My equipment is as follows;
127mm ED APO triplet-2" Crayford focuser
