Hi there and welcome to SGL

[StElmosFire]

Thank you for the warm welcome!

After lots of reading online and research we decided to put together and get a Skywatcher Explorer 200/1000 reflector on an EQ5 mount. Hugely impressed, really sturdy Tripod and mount. Good quality. We spent a few hours in a reasonably light polluted back garden Saturday night getting used to the mount and different eye pieces. Beautiful views of the moon, and a wonder sight of Saturn and it's rings even picking out the darker section of the ring followed by a little wave to the ISS as it passed over around 1:30 as we were packing up. All in all a brilliant first night and look forward to getting into some darker skys!!
