New Scope

[hayju01]

Look what the mail man brought

Pity there was a computer 'glitch' with the mount and it wont be here until tomorrow, but hey ho I can enjoy the warm fuzzy feeling that new kit brings

Very nice looking at your sig is it a C9.25 ?

[hayju01]

Ah yes sorry Kris should have mentioned that, yes it's "mountless" C9.25 :-)

[kris h]

When your mount comes tomorrow hope you get

nice clear skies for your 1st light

Thanks Kris.

I notice you have 15x10 bins, I've been toying with the idea of getting a pair (obvisouly scope came first) are they any good?

I'm thinking they may help be track down my first DSO.

That should be a lovely scope on the solar system objects.

Hope you get a chance to see Saturn before it disappears again.

Good Luck

Yeah there a great bit of kit to have, ok to use hand held but using

them with a tripod is so much better mine are the revelation

15x70 ones like flo sells stellarium & your mount will be much better at finding those DSOs .

Thanks Kris, sent email to FLO :-)
