Noobie Diary part 2 - the silly grin continues

Thursday 21st July

The order:
Ordered 10" ltd dob from Andrews, along with his 4 free plossls (eye pieces 9mm, 15mm, 20mm, 25mm). Coming with crayford focuser but there is no fan in the 10" ltd. Also ordered a ultra wide 30mm 80 degree eyepiece. A bit of a gamble here, not many reports on this one. Forum is plit on the superwides let alone the ultra wide. Also orderer a cheshire for collimation. $29
Total $952

Talked to Matt at Telescopes and Astronomy in SA and ordered the toucam webcam with exposure modifications, 5m usb extension & adapter.
Total $366

Total order value $1273

Now sit and wait......hmmmm might jump on the forum and stir up asimov about how good dobs are!!!!

Now hang on a minute....I admitted last night to the world that Dob's are good, Dobs are great....Now just leave me & my un-sellable EQ mount alone.
