Hi All, One of our fine group members kindly informed me that one of the diatoms I had posted, was not a diatom. ... Since I renamed it, it is now number 17. ...
Hi Stan, Glad to see someone posting, I thought everyone was off doing summer things. I guess they are, but it is also a fabulous time for collecting pond...
Hello All, I tried posting this yesterday, but it must have gone into Yahoo! never-never land. The critter farm has been 'cooking' for about two weeks, and it ...
Well, Ya'll know how I do things! I usually sit back and watch until something comes up that I might know something about. As of yet, I can only comment about...
Hello Arthur, I have a number of filters of 'uncertain origin' and I'd love to get them spec'ed out! The only thing is your suggested price seems a bit too low...
Hi All, Help, Arthur, A blanket apology to all, that I have been lacking in answering my email. Things have been a little hectic lately. But....I'mmmmm baaack!...
Hi Arthur, I agree with Mike, it would be worth more than that to me to find out what filters I have. Some where around here I have a bunch of older camera...
Mike, since the Spec-20's use a 1631X tungsten bulb, they're probably a bit underpowered to analyze stacked dichroic style filters. I suspect they would only...
Probably some or most of you are members of Microscope on Yahoo and so this may be redundant. My interest in microscopic aquatic organisms started when I was a...
Hi Stan and Mike and Arthur, This may well be the worst case of techno-babble gobbledygook I have ever written, but I had to take a break from housecleaning....
Gary, I speak techno-babble gobbledygook all the time. It's one of the requirements when talking to PHD's here at the university! It is a good idea that you...
Hey Stan! Glad your back! I don't have any reference for the numbers that you gave for the condenser, but it sounds like you have one of the somewhat rare...
Hi Arthur, The device which was available from Radio Shack many years ago, was just a simple detector and amplifier in a little module about the size of a...
Hi Gary, WOW, every time I read a posting, I learn something! "techno-babble gobbledygook" Now I can communicate like the pros! My only comment I have about...
Hello David, It's nice to see you as a member here; with your background you will undoubtedly be able to answer many questions that inevitably arise. The '41...
Hi All, First, let me thank all of you that have been concerned about my wife's health. The visit by our son was the best medicine she could have gotten. She...
Hello Mike, I am certainly not an expert, but I'm willing to add what I can. As to spiders, people send me digital photos and specimens all the time and I do...
Hello Stan and ALL, Some one recently stated something akin to "Microscopists can be classified as interested in the equipment or the subject." I am taking the...
Hi Tim, ... OK, guys, I knew this would happen, We have ended up as a case study. :-) ... Tim, There I have to agree, and you fit right in. ... We all were...
Hi ya' Tim :-) "> >I've been following Microscope for a year and half and Tom's sites for just over a year..." WooHoo!! So you're the one visitor! LOL It's...

Thanks for the reply, David! The serial number on mine is 15394 which, combined with its appearance, puts it well outside of the 1920s era. The knobs and ...
Hi Wayne,, Well done on your new goodie! I don't know about anyone else, but I go into a kind of techno shock, when I am made aware that, this kind of ...
Hello All, Since postings are a little slow lately, I thought I would try to get something going. How about it, group, what ya'all up to, microscope wise? New...
Hello Stan, Since you ask for posts here goes. You mentioned being interested in guns as some point. Can you imagine how much easier it would have been for...
