not bad at all mate...

Its always been a Salmon colour to me mate,

I have the 6mm tmb planetary II ep and its on the border line as well..

Cheshire every time for me..

yep thats how I do it..

cheshire everytime

There's a skywatcher skyliner 200p up for grabs in the buy and sell section mate, cracking scope and offers loads for the money.

Always a pleasure buying and selling here for me, You can always trust your fellow astronomers.

Thats good to know, And is 12" enough for the 300p? I have a camping mat I could cut up..

Thats great mate, must o took you ages?

When is Mars visible anyway?

Jupiter does have a ring system as do all our gas giants, But to faint to see from earth, So I take it you mean the cloud belts, I use x180/200 and see them fine, But I can also see them at x60/80.

Wow not bad at all mate, great detail there.. In fact its fantastic

I would say Meade 5000 or some TV plossls secondhand will cost 40/50. but to be honest you dont need expensive ones for the 200p dob

I had one and Jupiter was stunning with it, clear bands and the GRS was easily seen. I even saw the moons crossing the planets surface creating a shadow many times.. Its a fantastic scope mate. Saturn was lovely too with a clear cassini division
