My Bits on show!

[supernova]

Hi all, this is my stuff, with out all the eps and extras.

On the left, An ebay mistake, ahem.

In the middle my new C6N from FLO.

And on the right is--

The Pumpkin Cannon.

Orion 16in Dob.

The wife is inside cleaning the mirror

[jonifive]

WOW! Great scopes! Love the dob.

That's quite an array of instruments Bernie. The Pumpkin Cannon is the Cream of the crop, and I like the Celestron which will go in the car easy enough. The one on the left I have not heard of before. Is that a six inch f5?.

A nice group though.

Ron.

[Sam]

I'm very jealous of that Dob Bernie!

[supernova]

No Ron it is a 6in F/10 and it did the teaching bit but the mount is going under my new Coronado pst.

I am just as confused about the F/10 bit as anybody but that is what the ad said

Nice trio of scopes, don't forget to ask your wife to check the collimation of your secondary on her way out from cleaning the primary

regards

Gordon

[supernova]

I did say to her, Can you clean my F/4, she said what the F/4? I said yes cos its dirty

Ahem!

If it is f10 Bernie, it has to have a negative lens in the drawtube. It does not look long enough to be f10 otherwise.

Ron.

[supernova]

It has a barlow in the focuser that is fixed at the base if that is any help.

The Celestron is an F/5.

[Neon]

That dob looks the business Supernova. I think that'll be my next type of scope; a big lightbucket like that, although maybe slightly smaller so that the wife doesn't put her back out when she's carrying outside for me

[Sam]

so that the wife doesn't put her back out when she's carrying outside for me

My wife won't go anywhere near outside while it's cold.

I dont know how to take that

Yes, I have tested scopes of this design (Bresser made one). They are always "beginner's scopes" and tend to be poor.

I'd be interested to read how you rate the Meade.
