The Alfa is one of those "I'll get around to it" jobs. Not touched it for years now.

Nice setup CC.

Wheres the dew shield CC?

[FLO]

... and the finder-scope?

[Kaptain Klevtsov]

Dew shield? No dew, no shield required, or am I missing something?

Finder 'scope? How fussy are you guys? I can aim the 'scope by eye enough to get the moon in the FOV. It is quite big after all.

What you didn't spot is:-

No power supply

No camera (guess where that was for an extra point)

No moon

Should I use the dew shield all the time?

Captain Chaos

Yep, they stop stray light as well as dew.

What you didn't spot is:-

No power supply

I did spot the power cable, i assumed you had positioned your scope over a lay line to power it?
