Hello to all from a complete Newbie!

[howardmcheng]

Hi all,

I thought I'd drop by and drop a hello message as I just joined the forum last week.

I have been interested in looking at stars and the skies since I was a kid, but have only recently bought my first telescope (70mm refractor), so hope to see a lot more than I used to with just naked eye.

Apologies in advanced if I ask some pretty idiotic questions lol.

Hi Howard, and welcome to SGL.

The only silly questions here, are those that you don't ask, so ask away.

We all had to start from the bottom you know.

Hi again Howard from a fellow newbie, maybe we should have a joint effort of asking daft questions, because no doubt I will be later tonight if I get the scope assembled and outside

Hello Howard and welcome to the SGL forum

I second centroid's comment. When you are learning, there is no really daft question - you just don't know the answer!
