Sounds good Alan. I've just got home from my dark site after taking some photos of the Lovejoy comet. Had a ball out there tonight with my binoculars. I'm really excited to see how much brighter the image is going to be with the 8" dob compared to 10x50 binos. I have taken on board the comments from Raymond & Malcolm about learning the night sky so I am going to go looking for interesting features and push or drive myself to them. Then I'll use the goto to track them. It was really rewarding tonight doing that so I "get it"
Thanks
