Hi Ashley

Not all astronomy is visual, much of the work is understanding the principles of space itself. I am fascinated by numbers, distances, the scientific data. I am hopeless with mathematics and science but realising the basics can enlighten the mind.

There are some superb and free astronomy applications that can delve deeper than any small telescope can. One of my favourites is mythical knowledge, understanding why certain stars and constellations are called what they are, in short Astronomy is for everyone, knowledge is gained by understanding. Delve deep and keep facinated. All the best.

Just a thanks to SteveB for sorting out via gawd knows how many emails the reason why my goto upgrade was not working on my HEQ5 mount. Needless to say that sometimes its better to ask someone who knows rather than try and do it yourself. All now sorted thanks to steves recommendation of a specific power unit. Thanks all, great service. Terry

Yes totally, in the last 3 weeks I have phoned Steve a number of times in respect of some kit, and when he explains he has not got it in stock, but when they arrive he will post one out you know he will, thats the big difference. Also he answers his emails and his phone.

The massive difference also is that when he sends the kit, and a chimp like me messes things up, he has no problems at all assisting, now if that does not set a decent standard then what does, all respect to the guy, I think he will go from better to better, all credit to him and FLO.

I have already come to the conclusion that FLO will be my first point of contact before I go elsewhere.
