Lunt LS50THa unpackaging

[laudropb]

My new Lunt 50 arrived safely today. Thanks again to all at FLO. Just got to work out how to work it, but then you need a view of the sun for that and that has been in short supply lately.

Well thank looks the business. It's nice and sunny in Nottingham right now. I hope it's the same in Glasgow. If so, first light coming up.....

So stop doing it now!! 

Enjoy!

Very nice!  

The FT focuser is a great upgrade for this scope and very easy to fit.

Best of luck with those clouds

Thanks Mark

Lovely clear day in London. Solar disc completely clear too, bar some tiny proms - not worth setting up the scope today.

Tried to set up when there was a brief break in the clouds. By the time I had the mount and tripod set up it was raining.

I hope your wait won't be too long, John!

Could be a while Jeremy according to the forecast.
