Paul,
Thanks
I’m getting the “Mono itch” too but it can wait until next year , the financial controller has put a hold on Astro spending for the moment
Yeh the L Extreme is tremendous
I had the ZWO Duoband for a while but it’s no match for the L Extreme under all conditions.
Being retired and having a Nexdome Obs only 8m from my back door is fantastic. It use to take me hours to set up , cover up and uncover with tarps , roll up power leads etc.. Now I just open up hop through the door , switch on and slew to my target and can be imaging in a short while after focusing and framing
The wind doesn’t bother me either , the week before last it was blowing around 20 km/hr with occasional 30 km/hr gusts and my mount and scope were unaffected
Every clear night I’ll be out unless other priorities pop up
Cheers
Martin
