sell that 8" to fund an Argo, man! Or you keepin that as a more portable scope?
Not like I can USE my Argo now. Sheesh.
I miss Oz. Nothing like weeks (nay, months!) of clouds and temps -5 to -15 and 50 cm of snow coated with ice to sap every erg of astro-enthusiasm out of one's body.
Fortunately, I am moving to Arizona soon, where, like much of Oz, most frost can only be found on a cold mug of beer...
Gary K at Wildcard even has a feature on the Argo dedicated to Wisconsites like me. It was a safety feature, really. Gary is always thinking safety. You'll be out in winter, observing. Just before disaster strikes, the Argo LED display will flash urgently and display: "You are freezing to death. Go inside, you dork."
It only comes on units shipped to Wisconsin....
