All good sound advice on here as usual. If the market is small.All is not lost by any means

That's a very good question.I have a friend who moved from Wales to the Canary Islands two years ago in search of darker skies and better conditions. I remember at the time he searched the web for the very information which you seek. He found nothing and did all the leg work himself. He was helped by the Spanish local property agent and eventually settled on a villa that suited his needs. I would imagine that the market is small,but maybe wrong....Dave

Hi all, Shopped around on Thursday for an NEQ6 Synscan mount. A number of suppliers have no stocks. Managed to locate one at Tring Astronomy which I ordered at 2pm. It was delivered on a next day basis and I received it at 10 0clock this morning by DHL free shipping at a total cost of £999. You could'nt do better than that. Well done TRING ASTRONOMY................Dave

Hi, I made the mistake of having my 2.2 metre observatory erected on decking instead of concrete. The decking was down two years before the Obsey was installed a year ago. So far I have had no problems with dampness or condensation, but after reading the postings, eventually rot must come. I will then have to have the observatory lifted in one piece placed on the lawn at the side and a proper concrete base installed,and the observatory placed on the new base. The observatory is heavier duty than a Pulsar so will be heavier to lift,but will deal with that when the time comes. The cheapest is the always the most expensive in the end Dave
