Good telescope basics beginners guide on youtube

[spaceboy]

While browsing the net I came across this fella on youtube and found his basic guides on telescopes, eyepieces etc easy to absorb and answering similar questions that I see regularly asked by new members to SGL.

I thought I would post the link in case it might helps anyone new to astronomy and if bookmarked could also be a good source of reference for the future.

Yeah, I watched all of those in January - I thought that they were pretty good too. He also does a weekly 'what you can see in the skies tonight' type program - but strangely he never just says 'clouds'...

This guy is a great help, especially to a dullard like me , I have also found the youtube channel AstronomyAndNatureTV to be very helpful too.
