For the first time since the days before and just after the full moon we have had non-stop rain. Some of it torrential with wild winds too.
But tonight I there is but a few wispy clouds and I have the scope set up for darkness. I will use the Barlow and try your suggestion of rolling down the eyecup or removing it altogether.
BTW astro too, I now own an LX90 (second hand) and have sold the Dob and the ETX. I was a previous owner of the LX90 and glad to have it back.
Will change my particulars when I work out how I did it before.
Cheers!
Bert.

I've had the problem in a few eyepieces. In some I could roll the rubber eyecup down, in others ranging from a 4mm plossl to a 2" 30mm wide angle, I've had to remove the eyecup altogether.
