  1. you bar steward everyone has spent a fortune on Christmas food...……….
  2. Hey Stu, if you get the BGO sorted and want to part with it …. ;))
  3. I agree with John, Same situation here 75% of my goodies bought from here at SGL and "Never a problem" And at a price that was reasonable, Also I know that the gear has been well looked after. Even had stuff sent to me to try before sending funds now that is honesty/trust between members also giving stuff away for free to help out a fellow member. Andy
  4. have you asked on the indi forum or asked Jasem for Stellarmate what problems are you having exactly BTW I do not use either Andy
  5. you can't beat cine 8mm or super 8 for nostalgia with the patina shame as have reels from my youth yet no means to view nowadays just keep for prosperity for the young one's to figure out.....
  6. there used to be a high street chain Ferguson I think in the uk that kicked of vhs that then took over the market and killed betamax I can remember the top loader with huge buttons well more like fingers to press back in the 80's you rented it as cost' d a fortune and the video camera like a pro
  7. sorry laser disks https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/LaserDisc
  8. was created my Sony if not mistaken and yes better Def for playback our first video recorder was a Sony Betamax that my dad bought and can remember watching "the Deer hunter" on it back in the early 80's cost a fortune with a B&O tv as well (that cost a fortune as well)...
  9. Betamax was before vhs but never kicked off and vhs won anyone remember video disks?
  10. Andy, Did you manage to sort this out? Collimation is an OCD been there got the teeshirt Andy
  11. Also the developer for Astroberry himself is on this forum as well should you run into any problems or questions Regards Andy
  12. You will also need a case for the RPI4 as well unless you buy a bundle with one
  13. Don't Know what equipment you have but Astroberry and an RPI 4 4gb does the same thing as Stellarmate and the OS is free.
  14. Andy, with the 130pds and mine 150pds the secondary mirror is offset follow astrobaby's setup guide if you do get a laser collimator (Chinese equiv )cheap then verify it is true there are 3 grub screws under plastic covers to collimate the laser unless you spend money for a descent one.
  15. Radek Like the video "Hasta la vista I'll be back" you sound like Arnold Schwarzenegger. Love It.....👍 You need to add a "donate" to your website as this costs you "hope SGL don't object to this comment"... great work. Better performance than other OS for the RPI.. Andy
  16. did you buy direct from Accu as want to change mine on my 150pds?
  17. It's got to go back there is an error here "May contain Snow" nobody said anything about that Clouds ok but Snow a big NO NO...…...
  18. Looks great might even use on my PC small footprint and the keyboard has 3 usb 2.0 ports for accessories great
  19. the AZ GTI is rated at 5kg and the 130pds is 4kg with tube rings So I cannot see a way of removing the tube rings and attaching the scope unless you make some custom rings via 3d printer to reduce the weight also the size of the 130pds may suffer from wind disturbance plus when you add accessories the weight goes up. maybe only solution is look for a different mount or a small refractor.
  20. James, You are not alone same over here "message you where not in left parcel on doorstep" the other half was in and could not be bothered to ring the doorbell lazy people, Also parcel's left ontop of the postbox anyone could walk past and away with it. I have complained to the rain forest about this as well... Now the post woman will ring the bell she is great the problem is with the 3rd party delivery drivers on a mission to get home PDQ.... (there is always tomorrow to redelivery it) shame on you......
  21. you could have a chat with galvoptics UK based as well https://www.galvoptics.co.uk/optical-components/telescope-products-andamp-services/telescope-mirror-coating---primary/
