What killed the go-to wars?

Ed, but that should not stop you from enjoying amateur radio... you just have to avoid that "crapola"...

Great work James, and welcome to THE DARK SIDE... 8)
As far as getting a dedicated CCD camera, it surely means more equipment & stuff, but the results can be very "rewarding"...

I own a 1st generation Starshoot, and love it, so I'm sure you would love the NEW edition one...

Keep it up, and thanks for sharing!
