Thanks stephenmcnelley and rmcpb for getting back to me. Perhaps I should have "toured" the forums a little more extensivley before I started this thread.

(aren't these little guys fun!) Having said that, I would appreciate, and do appreciate, any advice that anyone has to offer me. I've been a proud amature astronomer for all of two weeks now and believe you me, I've got alot to learn!

<--- So much fun...
