Hello,

I have problems aiming my 76 / 350 National Geographic Dobson telescope.

Particularly on objects high in the sky, I try to look along the edge of the tube to "line it up" on the target and then I still have to do some random wobbling around looking for the target. Am using 20mm eyepiece - I have a 20mm and a 4mm and a 2x Barlow.

Any hints or previous threads I can look at, or is it simply practice ?

I know that some people have used these small 76/350 dobsons as spotting scopes on their bigger scopes so they must be able to aim them fairly easily.
