Is a Dob not a Newt then

Nowt wrong with loving both Calv, I'm the same.......but when you are in the Lambretta camp, you better not dis the Lambrettas and say Vespas are better

OI! Get back to your own thread!

Looking good Nate

I find AltAz mounts so much simpler and more convenient to use for visual work. Setting up an EQ takes more time, and for quick sessions it is far easier to just plonk an AZ mount out and find the objects manually. I even use my Goto mount in AltAz mode, it keeps the eyepiece in more sensible positions and is just easier. The other benefit is being able to mount two scopes which is particularly handy for solar viewing where you can have white light and Ha views side by side

Lovely indeed!!

Yes, proper scope

Lovely!!!

Amazing scope Damian! Where is it now, can you say?

To be fair she has seen most of them! Only two at a time, and I try to keep them all black and white

That's funny, and very true! My exchange rate is a little worse than yours, currently 0.5! To be fair I also maintain this when selling kit too so I don't earn extra [emoji3]

With all due respect, telling her was a beginners mistake [emoji6][emoji6][emoji14] Be more careful in future [emoji106]

Luvverly jubberly :-)

I'll do it soon Piero [emoji3], I think I'm brave enough [emoji14]

Looks even bigger in that picture Steve. Gorgeous scope, shame I didn't manage a peek at SGLX :-(

I could tidy all my remote controls in there, great!!

He was obviously 'cloaked', I didn't see him there!

Guarded by a killer devil bunny?

Well I'll oblige if you are feeling coy [emoji12]
