A great, detailed report - thanks for posting it.

Wow that is very impressive - great work.

Lovely drawings. I like the delicate colouring you manage to get on them.

No I have used 2 and they are always open - no password required. Wonder if it is worth doing a reset? I have never had to do it or tried it, but the manual says 4. Factory Reset If you forget the password of the adapter’s access point, the adapter will need to be reset to the factory default for accessing. The adapter can be reset to factory default after it’s powered on and not accessed for 1 hour. Otherwise did you buy it from a retailer - if so, ask them, and if no satisfactory answer I guess you can always send it back as it doesn't work.

The focuser is a weak point on the SW120ED. Just a poor effort, I think. Mine has needed many efforts at adjustment and it is never quite right. Shame really as it is otherwise a great scope. I claim no great expertise, but the optics seem excellent to me. But if was buying now to be honest I would look at an alternative simply because of this part. (They stopped selling the Equinox version with a better focuser shortly before I got mine). Great to have such choices, though - good luck!

Wonderful image and a fascinating comparison!

I think you have it exactly right there. There are clearly places where the Royal Mail service is poor or close to non existent, but my experience is more like others have said on here. Postie is a helpful friendly person and deliveries are always on time or even early. So very much how lucky you are with your local staff. And I think parcels are more of a priority for them than letters as they compete with other couriers and the number of letters sent continues to dwindle (whilst hopefully understanding how essential letter post is in certain circumstances). Also certainly helpful to have cheaper option for small/cheap item delivery, so thank you to FLO for that option.

That is a super set of image - fabulous!

I like that picture. Gives a real flavour of what you might actually see if you are lucky. Very natural.

Amazing trip! This is a great read, thank so much for posting it.

These are great. And the detail you are getting in a 4 ich is very impressive. Do post more if you do them. Feeling a bit inspired to try myself, now.

That is gorgeous - well done!

Great picture.

Excellent. Great to see the aurora so far south.

It has a lovely natural look, whilst keeping lots of details. Well done.
