Gee David, that reminds me of the only time I have viewed the sun. The wife and I were at Katoomba about 8 years ago and the chap who had the cafe on Cliff Drive had a solar rig to die for. I think the scopes were a Televue and Astro Physics refractors, top-end gear. Full aperture solar filters. The cafe was forgotten as we all viewed the sun for about 2 hours. Unbelievable, I have never forgotten the buzz that gave me. Envious I am!!!
