Newbie with bins

[ronl]

Hi all, my name is Ron I live on the Wirral in Cheshire I have been lurking in the lounge for a few months picking up information as I am looking to buy a telescope soon, still not made up my mind but I am sure I will get plenty of help here as everyone seems very friendly and knowledgeable, I am still learning the night sky with my bins (Meade 12 x 50) which I use with a tripod,I enjoy every minute, clear sky's to all

Welcome to SGL

If you don't have a copy of it already, you may find "Turn Left at Orion" a useful guide, and there's also this website run by an SGL member for binocular users:

Welcome to SGL Ron, have you tried the stellarium program which most people think is excellent.

Hi Ron welcome to SGL, good idea to learn the sky with bins first, wish i had gone that way myself, anyway when your ready i hope you have an easier time than most when deciding on your first telescope.

Hi Ron and welcome to the lounge, bins are the best way to learn your way around so don't rush to buy a scope.
