Televue Eyepieces Gordan was very good and I have bought a great eye piece from him with US Postal getting it to Melbourne Australia in about seven days at a reasonable cost. Hope this helps Jimhttp://www.myastrospace.com/forums/images/icons/icon6.png

It is looking like perserverence is the winner so to speak. Great to see Greg. I look forward to seeing what I am sure will be stunning photos. Jim

We can loan you some clear skies....if you dont mind a bit of heat to go with it....36-38 Celcius. But yes I agree with you on hoping for some good clear seeing. Jim :yesplease:

Greg, That is quite an accomplishment. However not surprising with your dedication to the "cause". Enjoy. Jim

Tony, A very nice effort. As to using a Newt perhaps but then this will surely do for now!!! Thanks for sharing. Jim

Shane, I don't kow about Wangaratta but once again here the clouds rolled in this afternoon. Looked at the forecast and hope it is wrong........not bloody likely though. Although last time I was in the UK (summertime supposedly) all I saw was rain. Jim :crazy: -

Dew Shane, Yes dew here tonight is already coming in. Well hoping for some clear skies on Friday or Sat nights as the scope seems to be growing cobwebs. Mind you forecast suggests Sat night.... Oh well patience is a virtue I was once told. JIm -
Hi Gordan, For those of us here in Oz what method of payment did you have in mind? Jim

Gents, It seems to this poor person that you both must have been the cause of all the nice clouds we have had here in Melbourne. So of course last night was clearish.......but had early start so enhjoyed a sleep rather than looking. Jim ;-)
