  1. You won’t like this but my E13 is my most used of the set. It’s fairly close to my Apollo, so you could perhaps justify the E13 on the basis that you are saving a shed load of money over the A11 😊 PS, completionist here too 😊
  2. Postman delivered Baader solar film ages ago but I’ve now made a filter for my Tak FC 100DZ
  3. I’ll let you know when I’ve tried the Ethos 21 😊 I find the E17 compelling. Where Ethos really come into their own is in the short focal lengths, for planetary work. I’d laboured decades under the misapprehension that the free the EP the better for high resolution work, but I had to eat my hat after trying the Ethos.
  4. When I started on the Ethos journey 2 years ago knew I wouldn’t rest until I’d completed the set……
  5. Amazon still saying delivery 21 June to 2 November 🤔
  6. Super visit and report I am a late adopter of Tele Vue eyepieces, but have developed a particular liking of the Ethos series as well as the Nayglers
  7. I’ve got an old Vixen cwt that I want to spruce up as it’s seen better days. I don’t want the original Vixen green. I’m thinking black or silver. Perhaps white. Which type of paint should I use? I want something that won’t rub or flake off. I seek a nice finish.
  8. Sorry Dizzy, it’s been a while but the night is yet young. FC 100DZ
  9. Sorry, I’m busy at the moment
  10. Where’s @JOCwith her battery tools when you need her?
  11. I’ll give it 18 months until you’ve outgrown the new case, Alan 🤣
  12. Love it, Nigella 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
  13. It maybe that your frequent open ended questions on “this vs that” become a bit tiring after a while. It might leave some to wonder if you actually want to know the answer or just engage in debate. Don’t get me wrong: there is space for debate - it’s what many of us enjoy, especially when it’s so cloudy much of the time 😊
  14. Looks super Paul. But please don’t touch the lens 👍🏻
  15. Wonderful 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
  16. Clear from dusk until just now when light cloud arrived. A nice time with the variables. First time out for a couple of weeks due to eclipse travel and weather. Very noticeable how the sky has “moved on”
  17. Although opposition is some way off (16 Jan 2025), Dr Richard McKim, Director of the BAA Mars Section, has started his blog: https://britastro.org/section_news_item/mars-opposition-blog-7-april-2023 He will post updates on observations, including any dust storms that might emerge.
  18. And we haven’t even got onto the subject of BBQ baby back ribs with BBQ sauce, @Alan White 😊
  19. Well it was good then and it’s good now, John 😊
  20. Not too hot. Typically max 80F. BBQ was excellent. I'm a real fan of brisket.
