Re - CCD camera advert
Sorry to here about the mount blowing. I'm afraid that SGL requires that all items advertised here have a fixed price or with a guide price with ono.
Please can you edit the advert to include a price for the CCD
Thanks

Saw the northern lights last night! A dream come true (although I did have to go to Iceland to see them).

We've just done a trial pack for going on holiday. We're off to Iceland for 4 days on Wednesday (very a.m.). The reason for the trial pack? - Can I fit all my camera stuff in the suitcase? The answer is yes (just).
Really hoping to see the aurora.

Hi Ian
It was great to bump into you at Astrofest. Thank you so much for your most generous offer.
Remembering to changing four fiddly timers every month is a right royal PITA. A simple Windows program/cheap USB relay solution that calculates local sunrise and sunset and allows the user the initiate switching of the relay at user-defined times before/after sunrise and sunset would take quite a bit of hassle out of operating an automated meteor video capture system. It could also be useful for automated operation of all sky cameras.
If it transpires that this project may be feasible, I'll be happy to send you a couple of the relays to play with.
Cheers

Darn fireworks - They dam near filled up the hard disk on the obsrevatory computer as they triggered my meteor camera over 250 times last night.

I think (big caveat) I've just worked out why my all sky camera has been playing up since the start of the month - I had unplugged the power USB hub from the mains - AAAAARGH
