Tony, they are adv. in S&T & Astronomy mags out of US. A similar prod. is, I think avail. here. Why not enquire at your local tent/canvas/caravan acces. maker? Nice location tho.
Pity our Ob. site is bitumen car park, or some might try one! L.

Also seen them advertised, but do not know where to get them here in Australia. My suggestion is to contact one Bintel and ask them if they can get one in. Being Kendrick, you could contact Adelaide Optical who stock Kendrick products. They might be able to get one in for you.

Thats a brilliant idea. I have seen the wind shelters, but not in a tent, be good to see at local star parties.

Oh I think this is post 40 woohooo.
