Leave telecope setup for a few days
I'm trying to think of a way that I can leave my scope setup for a few days (up to a maximum of a week), so I don't have to keep doing the setup/align/packup every time. I've seen a few people suggest using a camp toilet tent (and things like bbq covers etc) to protect it from direct sunlight and weather.
I'm not too worried about the weather issues, it shouldn't bee too difficult to keep dry. My main concern is how to stop it from overheating during the day. I know how hot my tent gets in the middle of summer, and I don't imagine the scope would like that.
Any suggestions would be very much appreciated. I'll be camping over christmas in a very dark site and would love to not have to keep setting it up every night!
