... WOW... this place is out in the middle of the boonies. I've been through Battle Mountain several times, so I can just imagine how dark this site is. I'm...
Quick question. Would I be "tarred and feathered" if I brought a quite generator up to IHOP 4 on a dark of the moon night for use in imaging? Don't know if...
... If I am there and I can't hear it, I wouldn't care. If I can hear it, I wouldn't like it. One of the things I love about IHOP in general is its distance...

I can't imagine that your generator generating a lot of noise. It would be fine with me. The place is big enough so if you setup where you did last year on...
... Having been through similar discussions over the years on TAC, I'd ask...*how many* generators would be okay, an unlimited number? And, so long as someone...
True. But I doubt that one generator would generate a lot of outcry...unless it sounds like a lawnmower. It all depends on the noise level of the unit. If I...
I deliberately asked the question before I went out and bought anything or brought something up without telling anyone. There were generators at SSP and they...

I'm not a "regular" at IHOP anymore, making it up there only a couple of times a year recently, so don't take my opinion tooo seriously....but if the generator...
... It also depends on who is there and who is sensitive to noise and who is not. The last thing I want to see is for IHOP to become like Blue Canyon was in...
And, I can do everything with batteries except for one thing. My powered USB port on the motherboard is a 1.1 port while my guidecam wants USB2. I have a...
... Thank you for your consideration. ... Right. When I attended SSP last year, I never heard them, because they were extremely isolated, and I was far away...
... Frankly, that's my concern too. I can already hear someone at Coe saying "but they do it at IHOP4!".... I remember years ago, at Fremont Peak, Bill...
... I personally don't see a problem with using a generator at one of the observing sites given your fellow observers don't have objections to the noise. What...
... Right Richard. We allowed generators at SSP 2006, and that may have been the first year. It was done with you, specifically, in mind, right? But,...
I have a Kendrick 33 A-h battery that I use for the mount. I need an additional 75 A-h battery (easy to get) for the laptop so it can get through a night (the...
Hi Teri -- I'm new to the area (my family moved up from the Bay Area, and we're finally unpacked enough for me to start observing again), but by way of...
Teri, if you're shopping for a battery, may I suggest the Evil Empire? (Wal Mart) The battery I run my go-to C8 off of is a ~75 amp-hour Deep Cycle Marine ...
