Hello to Everybody:
A big thanks to everyone who's responded to my very lame request. I haven't written back, 'cause, well, you know, if you're in Sydney, the sky hasn't been exactly picture perfect. I work full time and I haven't had a chance at all to try your suggestions. Keep them coming though.
I promise, I will try, exactly what you suggest and in my next thread provide my scope information. But what I can tell you right now, is that, based on the horrendous, I mean terribly awful, Chinese (ie supposedly English)instructions that I received with my scope, any normal human being would have given up, but I
perservered. It took me 2 hours for a 20 minute job 'cause the instructions were so bad, but that's another story!
Here's an idea...for the immediate future. I live at the Sydney Olympic Park. We have a bunch of cool, what they call markers (hard to explain but if you live in the west, you've seen them), here. I think it would be great fun to get a group together to set up scopes. Nothing spectacular but at least above city level. Anybody interested? That way I could learn to use my scope, we'd have a get together for those interested in the area and I'd provide entrees (BYO). It could be fun...anybody willling to have a go?
Thanks again for all your help. Once the skies clear up I'll try your suggestions....and those who have offered to help... be careful out there. I might take you up on your offer.
Thanks so much,
Lynn
