Where can I get GMT Explorers?

[Adrian]

I have a couple of BST explorers, but with the clocks going back tonight I need some eyepieces that will work in the winter. Are there GMT explorers and where can I find them?

Start using them 1 hour earlier, this may fool them into thinking they are GMT eyepieces.

Put them in the microwave on defrost to take them back to summer temperature.

Brilliant

This thread just goes to show what an odd sense of humour us astro freaks have, long may it continue :hello2:

I was wondering why there were only silly comments here. The humour has just hit me.

I'll get me coat.

The Mrs would say that "humour" may be taking it a bit far

you can convert your daylight saving ep`s to work in winter by adding a little fur round the rubber bit and by a liberal spraying of anti freeze ,

or you can fool them into thinking its summer by carrying a little uv strip light with you ....... also making bird noises like a lark or a swallow , helps to fool the into thinking its still summer
