It's certainly going to be interesting. I got the OTA assembly mounted today. It took 2 of us to lift it onto the cradle. It's a big beast. But after a bit of tightening and tweaking, it was time to actually take a peek through it. Turned it onto a telecom tower up on top of the D'Aguilar range about 5 km away and at x600 it was still crisp and clean and the tower filled the ep entirely. At x1000 I had an individual antenna dish dominating the ep and the detail was still crisp and clean. This big boy is going to give us some serious knee-trembling moments with lunar and planetary stuff. Wahoo!! So now it's raining and forecast to continue for the next week. Rats!
