    Looks like a lot of interest for tonight

    Terry will be down to as well so we will have a couple of us

    Things for tonight …… 

    Dobs – how to collimate a dob and why we do it 

    Setting up a dob for beginners 

    Polar alignment techniques and tools 

    Will do a bit of board work but mostly practical

    You will also get a chance to start learning some of the bigger fixed scopes too and a chance for some observing

     

    Watch for late news here 🙂

     

    Cheers

    Add my Thanks to that as well!  It was great to use the scopes that, for me, was the first time and to see the guys in action.
