Well last night was probably a "window of opportunity"in what one would call a miserable weather pattern at the moment. Great time was had by all attendees and some occasional pristeen moments as Geoff's both reported.
Seeing wasn't too bad, however the dew problem put a "damper" on things.
My scope was suffering huge build up and I think I will need to experiment with a "Cuban" smoke test as Andrew said to determine the flow of air through the tube. Deeno also had an "AIRFLOW" problem but we won't go there.
During the latter part of the night our banter was keeping the local dogs awake and they paid us a visit. Everyone thought we discovered a new "double star" through the fog, when we found out that the double was only the reflection of the dogs eyes from the torch.
Cheers.
