Just an update on this for any other beginners.

Having now studied a couple of each of S&S and AS&T I've got to say AS&T was by far the better mag IMHO.

With the first S&S I picked up, when I read the editorial (as I always do first) it started with an apology for not issuing the previous edition - for whatever reason. This put me off literally from the first sentence.

Generally though I thought the production and content of AS&T better. The S&S layout is very amateur.

But I'm into "buy Oz", so good on S&S for being there. Competition is always a good thing.

P.S. Gotta admit I got caught thinking some mags were OS clones (in my original post) because they had similar piccies and articles on the cover - and the Night Sky with its S&T logo on it.
