Hi All, As some of you know, in recent years there has been a star party every Spring sponsored by Steve Coe and the Saguaro Astronomy Club, held at Sentinel,...
...Sort of reminds me of the Woody Allen saying łI wouldnąt want to be a member of a club that would have me as a member.˛ <g> Curt Curt, Actually, it was...
... I could have sworn that was Woody Allen. In fact I have been saying that for years :( On the other hand maybe he did and was just a good plagarist. And...
Woody Allen quotes Groucho Marx in the voiceover intro to the movei, Annie Hall. Cheers, Paul Sterngold ... __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? ...
Thanks for posting this, Paul A. I'm interested but would prefer to carpool with someone or caravan. Is anyone else from SD/OC thinking of attending? I have a...
John, Honestly, no need for a freebie -- I'd be happy to do it, and keep the dues going towards park fees, etc. Money well spent :) It makes a lot of sense...
Hi Paul- Sentinel is a lot like LBV as far as conditions go. It's Sonoran with cinder cone. The road in is a little better than out at LBV. When the Saguaro...
Hi Bill, Bite your tongue young man; you know there is no place like LBV when it comes to "conditions" ;-) We've all frozen our tails off there during the...
... Well, Dave, the badge gets bigger. December 27/28 it got down to 8.6 F. I think that was my limit. And the bombing range badge I donąt think I even ...
Hi Curt, Yeah, I heard about that December star party from John Downs. I'm glad I missed it <g>. Actually, I was in southern Arizona with my wife and kids on...
Hiya Dave- Good point on the cold at LBV. It's one funky-cold place come winter, one you'd better be damned well prepared to stay in. And let's not forget the ...
Shoot Curt, you just need to get on over to Cabela’s and pick up the gear. Best $200 you’ll ever spend but I’m still looking for the boots that don’t ...
Paul your a good man, with all the great response I've gotten it looks like the main imaging group want to wait it out and see the results before moving around...

Thanks, Bill. The proximity of the gas station/store is attractive.This doesn't sound like an unpleasant place to observe/image. Cheers, Paul S. ... ...
Like night and day Bob. The first thing that grabbed me was the overall difference in brightness between old and new. Coating technology and high-index glass...
... I'm a little older than Bill and I noticed an marked increase in eye- relief over the old type II's. Dave J. and I did a compare between the old 20 T2 to...
John is quite right in his assessment. The difference we saw between the T2 and T4 Nagler was quite astounding to me (us). Using my C-14 for the side by...
Dimension? Boy Johnny, you must be getting really old! Dimentia perhaps? Funny you and Dave mention the 20 vs 22 comparison. I see a big difference, especially...
Hi Bob, About the same time as the 20 NaglerII vs 22 NaglerIV I did a comparison of the 16 NaglerII vs 17 NaglerIV. To my eyes the results appeared to be...
I second the dimentia part, just kidding ;-)) So Bill, thats how you spell dimentia, pretty cool. This eyepiece thing, well, I have a bunch of oculars, but...
Hi Gang, Yes I'm alive - but only just. My apologies for not being exactly active for the past 18 months or so, I've been through some very tough issues during...
... Paul, That is an amazing story, to say the least (no sympathy from us though :^) I know that you have been really laid up if you had those scopes and...
... By the way, in case you donąt know it you are very close to the OCA Anza site. You ought to check it out. Not LBV but convenient. Curt [Non-text...
Sure is good to hear from you, Paul. Not so good to hear *why* you've been MIA, though! I have nothing funny or clever to say about what happened. I just...
