Got to agree Bram - it's a great cover, especially when I was at the dark site - I set up the first day and with the cover i could leave it that way until I had to go home.

I have two Telegizmos covers somewhere in transit. A T3R5 for overnights and a TGS0 for solar observing.

Hi Dennis, yes thank you.

We had some stronger wind here mid-week and I was indeed worried that the rig would have been blown over ... all was fine when I came home. But lesson learned .

Cheers,
