Hey Bill, What kind of 2" star diagonals are you bringing? Why do you no longer need them? I might be interested to get one... Pierre ... Of pawb63 ... Olson"...
Hi Rolf, Thats superb!!! Seems to me that you've proved that is is indeed a band feature since it shifts when you rotate the camera! This is very cool, I ...
The Sandrella's restaurant is leading in the poll. So I suggest we meet there for pre rasc dinner. (I may be late however). We wont need a reservation. ...

Thanks Mike. It would be nice to get additional confirmation of this apparent band. I am guessing that it is an IR feature, so probably not visible. Do you...
One's a nice Antares SCT diagonal, that I don't need because I'm using a WO crayford with a refractor diagonal on the SCT now. The other's a standard ...

... But this was your chance to go to Sandrella's! Oh well, we didn't make it to the meeting either - don't like to go out to the east end when the roads are...

... The rasc holds them periodically. (the meetings are open to the public). The last one was last friday. (I've been received OAFs posting from yahoo 2 and 3...
Attilla: Thanks, I'll see when their next swap meet is (unless someone from OAFs arranges one somewhere). My emails from Yahoo also often arrive 1-3 days late....
Since there only was about 45 people at Friday's meeting, because of the bad weather, maybe Brian (the new meeting chair) should have another swap table...

You might also try the Trailing Edge, in Bell's Corners. They keep more normal business hours, and often have bits and pieces at their bargain table in the...
One thing I sometimes do when first trying new autoguiding sw is lock onto a very distant (so it's just a speck) communications tower light or streetlight and...
Another place is that computer place on the northside of Colonnade Rd.. I think it's called Northern Micro or something like that. I haven't been there for...
Leonard It's finally clear out, stop looking at distant streetlights!! Just kidding, that is actually a cool idea to test guiding software. I wouldn't be...
