Hey all,

My first post. Thought I might learn a few things from this website. Basically, I started off about a year ago with a pair of old binoculars, moved to a cheap 60mm refractor, and recently bought a 6" Newtonian. It's doing me well so far, however I have the most unfortunatley backyard. Largest trees in the neigbourhood infact. Having to wait several hours for patches of sky to clear the trees in becoming frustrating, especially when clear nights only come round every third or fourth night at the momment.

My current project is finding birght asteroids, hopefully this will help me get a little better at star hopping and working out this telescope.

Later
