Fog filters??? don't need 'em here in SE Qld, we have plenty of moisture and dew here to do the job instead!!

Sorry to laugh Greg .. but I just have to If it helps, it's been annoyingly partly cloudy here for the last two weeks .. 2 weeks.. hmm, no, that probably won't help you, sorry ... well, what can I say, come to WA? (ps, that's my way of hopefully getting us some rain ... maybe I've jinxed it now...)

Thanks Steve It is nice having the diffusion much more evident on the large stars, more so than the small ones, agree.

If Bockie and I can make lots (and lots) of $ and pay for our astro gear from astro busking many years ago then you could easily pay for your new mount in no time.

Thanks Peter

I have been selling a selection of my astro photograph since 2003 .. not sure I will ever be able to make it pay for the telescope though one day maybe or maybe I need to buy smaller telescopes.
