hello to existing members
Great to hear of another group of amateurs starting up, I've been into astronomy for about 25 years but have only been able to spare any serious time in the last 18 months or so due to all the usual things,to much work etc.
Now that I've got the time I went out and bought a 12" Meade LX 200 and piggybacked an Orion ED 80mm apochromatic reflector ( an absolutely great scope ), I'm currently building a split roll-off roof observatory which should be finished in about 2 weeks (hopefully), I live in Monbulk, Victoria, this is in the Dandenong Ranges so any of you guys in the area feel free to get in touch.
Looking forward to making new friends in astronomy.
All the best Mick.
