Pig Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 I still haven't had the chance to try out my Terminagler 31mm 82deg and 1kg of TV magic all quashed by thick cloud cover I may have to travel somewhere to get a go with it as the forecast is very poor in Northants this weekend. (from a cloudy night point of view)Grrrrrrrr Ah well I guess I will have to got to laze about in the steam room, my 3rd best hobby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alan potts Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 Send the clouds and rain to me, I would be happy to let you have my wall to wall blue sky, you do get sick of, really. We only have water on every other day, the down side of fine weather and I smell a bit ( maybe).The 31mm is a fine piece of kit and now it have come down in price even better.Alan.

Charon Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 Yes same here on Crete it is so dry, send the rain here please, unlike Alan in Bulgaria there are no water cuts but I could do with free water for my fruit trees. By the way the 31mm is a wonderful (albeit heavy) piece of kit, I am sure you will enjoy using it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 That eyepiece is so good I'm somewhat disappointed that it doesn't see through cloud as well Maybe you could meet up wtih John as his new frac might possibly poke through the clouds anyway? Hope you get a bit of clear soon. Have you got a first target in mind for it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you got a first target in mind for it?I did get a quick glimpse at the Moon through the clouds using it, so it does work to a degree through clouds Is it true you have a long one John ? Thank you, I am sure I will get a chance soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillP Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 Until it clears outside, just hang the A GLIMPSE of the Milky Way 78"x18" poster in the house and use your scope and 31T5 to explore the poster :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
