Andrew* Posted October 25, 2008 Share Posted October 25, 2008 Looks good, Greg. I've often wanted an SN because they're faster than newts but have less coma. Is this true?Andrew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clearly it's alot warmer in't southBefore everyone rings the social .....A bit like me he doesn't feel the cold! However he did pop in later and put a fleece on He's asked for a telescope for Xmas, along with a Light Sabre as he had the toilet roll tube for a scope and an egg box for a lappy last night.Looks good, Greg. I've often wanted an SN because they're faster than newts but have less coma. Is this true?Yes Andrew..If I get to Keilder next year you can have a look for youself.

Whippy Posted October 25, 2008 Share Posted October 25, 2008 Looking good Greg, nice to see Lewys taking an interest. That SN10 is f4 is it not? Make a cracking imaging scope (cough splutter....)Tony.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bern Posted October 25, 2008 Share Posted October 25, 2008 Looks good, Greg. I've often wanted an SN because they're faster than newts but have less coma. Is this true?I think the coma is equivalent to an F5 scope rather than an F4bern Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blinky Posted October 25, 2008 Share Posted October 25, 2008 It's great when the ids take a real interest. My youngest is very interested in the stars and Moon and always loves a look through the scope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
