LX200 WorkShop at M.R.O

[do3_37mro]

Macedon Ranges Observatory will be hosting a Meade LX200 Workshop on the 14th April covering aspects of the Meade Telescope and software not normally known to users. Some of the tips and tricks to be demonstrated have been gleaned from the 'Inner' workings of the software. The program will cover Scope Setup, Handpad Operation, Balancing, PEC Error recording and improvement and much much more. A most valuable event for all Meade users.
Demonstrations will be provided by members of the Advanced Meade Users Melbourne Group. For more details see http://www.darksky.net.au/events.html

Is there a Sydney chapter? This sounds like a great idea.

Sad to say..No
But might be worth the trip down as the demonstrators are the
best in australia in this area of Meade operations without doubt.
