Hi from Suffolk

[gthomas]

Hello, just popped in to say that

I've been interested in astronomy for decades but only got into owning serious equipment over the last year. Starting with a Mak127 on an AZ Goto mount I've since added an Explorer 150P on an EQ3, an ST80 which is intended to be for guiding when I get a guidable mount, and just this week I've bought a Quattro 8S which I was able to try out for the first time last night (heavy condensation).

I have used a webcam for planetary imaging and a Canon 450D for DSOs etc. Hoping to eventually migrate to a quality guided mount to do some really long exposure DSO work.
