Hello all

[Baselessum]

Well joined a few days ago so thought I had better post something at least and say hi to everyone, as a complete novice who's just made a purchase of a SW200P reading through these forums have helped immensely already.

Hi, Baselessum, and welcome to SGL! That's a very capable scope you have there. If you haven't already downloaded it, I can recommend 'Stellarium' a free planetarium programme which will help you see what is 'on show' each night, and will also help in planning a viewing session.

Warm welcome to SGL. A good informed choice of scope too. Another vote for stellarium which can be found here :-- http://www.stellarium.org/

Also try copies of 'turn left at orion' and 'sky & telescope pocket star atlas', these will help guide you round the sky.

Welcome to the lounge. As said, excellent choice of scope... plenty of wonders visible with an 8" mirror!
