I'm still in shock Randy! Is this for real? I'm trying to get info, but it looks like many US services are "jammed" due to access. While extremely sad, this...
Hi All! I just bought a used AT1010 to upgrade from an ST80. I want to try this scope on my Bogen 3221 tripod (I have a #410 geared head right now). What are...

Hey Group: Finally, after nearly 18 days, we got some respectable observing conditions. Out came the 102D. I caught Io just before egress, and then followed...
I just ordered the new 'metal with SV logo' objective lens cap on Thursday for my EDT. I am also planning on getting the new diagonal. I asked about it and...
Ed, I have a Telepod on my 3221 for my AT1010and EDT. It is a little light for high power, but works fine for wide field. The 410 head should work ok, but...
