Was speaking with Rod, and we're keen for a 3rd quarter viewing session at Kulnura, on either Friday 26th or Saturday 27th of August.
My main purpose of the night will be eyepiece testing, including:
1. The 15mm shootout between the series 500, GS Plossl and GS SuperView.
2. Testing of a 13mm Nagler Type 6, in order to write a review for the site (thanks Bintel!). I'll be testing it in my scope (f/5 @ 1250mm FL) and Rod's LX200 (f/10 @ 2500mm FL), and comparing it to my 14mm Meade UWA s4000.
Also, my DGM Optics NPB filter should've arrived by then, so hopefully I'll put it through its paces, and compare it directly to Rod's Astronomik OIII.
rally love to hear the outcomes of testing but unfortunately i doubt cheryl would give me the passout as I've been going places without her just about every weekend for the past 1.5 months.
Sound good Mike, friday is out for me with NAS meeting but I will ask SWMBO and see about coming. if I do I will also bring a 15mm meade s4000, the baader 2" filter, the meade series 5000 24mm and 34mm, 20mm nagler T5 and a 9mm nagler T1. i also have a 18mm konig 2" and I may be able to get a 18mm meade s5000 ultrawide.
