Re: Acclimated too much to the cold?
I actually observed when I got home. I rolled the 25" out of the trailer. I never once looked at the moon or planets but did observe a few planetaries and double stars. The seeing had improved since

Re: New / Used Scopes
Although the horizon is limited at Coinjock, NC I hope all can attend this year's East Coast Star Party which I shall be hosting March 28 & 29. You can use the time observing as many Messier objects

Re: New / Used Scopes
I'll render an opinion too (I have plenty of them to spare....) Star hopping is a lot of fun, and a skill that everyone should develop. I've got a LX-90, but one of the first things I did was to start

Re: Acclimated too much to the cold?
It was a beautiful night last night wasn't it? I'm afraid my observing was limited to the hour or so after the show at the Chesapeake Planetarium. As most of you know, Kent Blackwell sets up the

Re: More stuff for sale.
I don't see any problem with it. It's a public service for our members where we can offer equipment to others in the area. I wouldn't want to see dealers from California posting, though.... Rob From:

Acclimated too much to the cold?
Interesting experience a little while ago which tells me it's been too cold for too long! Stepped outside to run an errand and the temperature felt very pleasant and conducive to working in the yard

Re: More stuff for sale.
I'll defer to Rob if he has a different opinion but I think posting stuff for sale is "right on the nose" one of the valuable uses of this list. As long as it is astronomy related stuff, I don't see a

Re: New / Used Scopes
I agree too ... just to throw my two cents in. I get a great deal of satisfaction in starhopping. After all, I'm out there to enjoy learning the sky. But I have to say that computer aided observing

Re: New / Used Scopes
After years of not having the luxury of a computer, now I find it hard to turn mine off I must admit. However, Messier Marathon time is one occasion I make a big exception. The sense of accomplishment

More stuff for sale.
Sorry if posting stuff for sale is off topic, or maybe it's not, I'm not sure. Anyway, I have a few more things I want to get rid of a club member might be interested in. I have not posted these on

Re: New / Used Scopes
I agree with Lelane about finding objects by starhopping. In all my years of stargazing my true love has been the "thrill" of finding something on my own. It's a rewarding experience one cannot attain
