It has been nearly a month, Ice has an extension he hasn't use, I have a ir/uv filter i can't test.
What bugga has spent enough $$ to take two states out for a month.
cmon own up.
ANNNNNDD, the jetstream is nonexistant.
The seeing is fantastic, i saw jupiter last week thru the eyepiece for 20 seconds.
Thats it!!!
If i find out that the 16" GSO dob has been released in victoria and the boys have been secretly purchasing, then I will take out a loan for a titan mount just to get you bugga back!!!
I am so desparate that the scope went out at 4pm.
It is out cooling (probably at -4 degrees now), but as asi would say, stuff it!
Right, positive thinking..
RACK OFF CLOUDS AND FOG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hope it wasnt me selling my observatory and buying a tocam, barlow, baader IR/UV filter and a laser collimator...... Oh be prepared to get clouded out in November too when I get my mount
Well DP this may tip you over the edge, its about as good as it gets here no cloud no wind and reasonably dark but I cant take advantage of it, to fatigued after working a 70hr week and another 8hrs tomorrow helping a mate refit a Liquorland store ill miss the eagles game and be surrounded by beer all day
Yea i know what your saying, first clear night here for ages, did a couple of wide fields.
Had the hair dryer pumping plus a small fan blowing some wind around as the frost settled at 10pm, but it was clear for once, and that's what matters.
ill miss the eagles game and be surrounded by beer all day
