Those Infernal grooves. Not the word of choice!

Posted By Linton Rohr
Hmm. I could take them or leave them.
They don't bother me that much.
But I sure wish my old TV camera adapter would have been notched...
Perhaps my 20D wouldn't have fallen out of the tail end of my TV-85! cwy

"I suggest that this thread - relevant as it is - is moved to the general astronomy forum."


Dang, just when I was about to contribute! wink
Thanks anyway, Rod.

WINTER STAR PARTY, anyone?

Posted By Linton Rohr
Hi Ivan.
I was really wanting to attend this year for the first time,
but the folks in charge of scheduling have set me up with an insanely busy few months. :S
It may be my last job though, so next year for sure! grin

Barlowing an Ethos?

Posted By Linton Rohr
I haven't tried it, Bill. But I heard it works great.
I'll try it out, if I can get in a night of observing this week end.
I have a Big Barlow, and a newly received 4x Powermate to try it with.

More 100 degree AFOV in the future?

Posted By Linton Rohr
Sorry for chiming in late, Charles,
but I read somewhere, a review or a forum,
that the Ethos was not scalable upwards - longer focal length,
but could be scaled down to a higher power - shorter focal length version.
I think someone was quoting Uncle Al as saying that.
For what it's worth.

Yep, we're still there - we've just been demoted to the "other" forums. wink
Party on...

Hi Thom.
Thanks for giving me something to look forward to! grin
I booked a cabin on the North Rim while I was there last year.
I guess I'd better make some adjustments. :S

Getting ready for the next years observing.

Posted By Linton Rohr
Good idea, Floyd!
Haven't had a good night out for a while now.
I have quite a few little upgrades I should be doing, too.
Can you get me a week off work? wink

Pictures of your Meteorites

Posted By Linton Rohr
Great photos guys. Thanks for sharing.
There are some very nice specimens here.
My small but growing collection is quite modest,
but I will try to take a few pictures to post in the next few days.
