Recomend me a monthly astro mag

[Essex Stargazer]

As above , I am looking at getting a UK monthly astro mag on a 12 month subscription

Any recomendations please ?

S at N, Astronomy Now, Sky and Telescope ..... take your pick. Probably the best thing to do is leaf through a few next time you're in WHSmiths, and see which one you like. Alternatively, you could listen to Mike and his mate Dave's podcast, thread here: http://stargazerslou...n-is-requested/. Site here: http://www.2020astro.com/. It's free, monthly, and quite entertaining to boot!

S&N for me. Seems to have more relevant amateur astro stuff

If I was going to get a magazine it would have to be Sky & Telescope, as this is the only one I really like, and will pick up and buy if I see it. Not keen on the British ones.

Sky at Night for me too!

I agree with Andy (Black Knight) and flick through a couple of mags to see what they have to offer and whether their content suits your experience. On several occasions I have thought about a subscription and SKy @ Night certainly has some great offers but in the end I found that I just buy any astro mag purely on its specific content be it a decent review on some kit that I'm thinking of getting or an article on a specific aspect of observing (Patrick Moore's regular section 'Moonwatch') at the end of the day it depends on what you are interested in.

Someone mentioned some technical astro magazines on this forum six months ago or so. Would love a reminder as to what they were named....

I'm biased because I occasionally write for Astronomy Now, but I started buying AN when I started out in astronomy 'some time' ago. I like it, though, and hugely enjoy making my little contributions. Check them out and see which one suits you most.
