Great, I will bring in plenty of LAYS potato chip for you all, i will set up the C4R OTR for sale and will let all to testdrive the new burgess binoviewer that Chee Chien brings back for me from US. Its like a mini star-party.

jeff, when i waa s University pf Oklahoma (USA) doing my architectural degree in 87', the benefits of the US education can let you take intro to 101 astrophysic, or 101 astonomy. I had a long interest in astronomy, astrophysics ie Singularity Theorem etc. We had a decent dome observatory which is a ...

This pics are great inspiration to us and alike,
thanks to our dear hubble (before it is out of commission) and nasa.

i am thinking of getting it as a finder, but again no cross hair....hmmm and needed to machine a bracket.

Thanks Kayheem, Its the c8 i bought over from Kimhai, 2" scoptronix barlow, i am still having problem to locate the planet on the 480 x 640 Imager screen even as i align the finder scope. Its like tikam-tikam until i see the planet. the acuter with the barlow will work like a 5mm 400x magnifica...

Another attempt on 26/5/2005, 9.00pm , notice more texture on surface, 200 stacks by registax2.
colour 75%, brightness 5%, contrast 25%.
c8 f20 (with front stack barlow) acuter imager from Jim Mcgill(approx 10mm)

CC, the burgess binoviewer you got is the 22mm clear aperture type from highpoint. i notice the older model had metal ep screw, while the later version had 3 nylon/ delrin screw. This is probably the best under $200 investment for any telescope.

Dear CC, just reply your email too, BTW, i am thinking of being able to use the bino viewer for astrograph purpose too, stick a wide ep on one side and a CCD imager on the other. In this case it will easier to locate a planet or galaxy on the pc, as i am having a problem to locate the planet on the ...

CC, you are making me drool....come back quickly please.
The review from cloudy nights is good ( Apart from the delrin screws which needed improvement - as you don't over tighten it, should be OK) . Can't wait to use it.
Pm me the cost and dbs ac no.

Ahhhh. thanks CC, i am quite eager to use it. finally i get my binoviewer. I used it ( not a burgess) on a c14 at Sydney Observatory and sightings are really good.
