Humidity
Hi,
I have a Celestron 6SE and I live in a unit without air con on the Sunshine Coast in QLD,
the humidity gets very high at times, today for example reaching nearly 80%.
When not in use how should the above scope be stored to best protect it from humidity?
Should a thin plastic drop sheet be placed over it? and should the OTA be removed or left in place on the tripod assembly?
Finally should the OTA be left vertical or horizontal to the ground?
If you live in a high humidity area I would appreciate your comments re the above and how best to store the telescope.
N.B
I did read somewhere that if left vertical this could cause grease/oil to drip and do damage, is that corredt?
Thanks,
ian
