Yes Jeff I did contact (E-mail) David Dundee on April 26 and he did respond on April 27 so he is aware that I'm coming. He did not, however, make any comment...

OK Thanks Dan. I think they are hoppin' busy out there but he should have you on the list then. Thanks Jeff ... From: Dan White To: NWGAA@yahoogroups.com Sent:...
The weather doesn't look great for tomorow so I will probably bring only one scope. I think I can fit my SCT in the cab and still have room for myself....
I'm thinking about setting up my big dob and I have a new iOptron pod setup for my PST and etx70 solar rig that we can play with. I will be there around 9:00. ...
I stumbled across this site today. It has lots of astronomy software packages linked and many of them are free. I have seen most before but there are a few I...
I'm out the door to Tellus and will be there before 9:00. Looks like we have more rain just over the Tenn. line and the chart and weather are showing cloud...
I just wanted to say thanks to all who came out to Tellus for Astronomy Day 2009. It was good to see folks again. We talked to lots of people and picked up a...
Thanks as always to Ron and Bev for having us out. With the clouds, was only to get about 30 to 40 minutes on the M81/M82 Galaxy pair but it turned out...
Indoors was rather boring. Those who stopped by really brightened the day, and seemed generally interested. Handed out a few sundials and group fliers...

O yes, before I get flamed. I don't recall saying a 80 dollar scope was ok. I do recall saying put that money in a nice set of binoculars, and only saying my...
the field of view was about 1 degree by 1.6 degrees on the camera chip before I cropped it down a little on final picture. That's probably about 50x...

No doubt I have a screw loose but I'll have to look to see if that was one of mine. I got home from Tellus yesterday just in time to find out my Mom was in...

My Mom apparently had a couple of mild strokes (oxymoron I think). She seems to have come back pretty much to normal and she was just released from the...
I would think it would make a nice wide field scope for comets and wide views. My big 13 inch dob is f4.5. It will have some coma around the edges at that f...
Jeff I am glad to hear your mom is doing better. It sounds like she is a pretty tough cookie. It was good to have finally met the Myth/Man/Legend last...
Thanks Andrew. She definitely is. It was good to meet you too. The question now is whether I was the real Jeff or someone sent just to confuse you more. Most...
