Post by **lowrobin** » Mon Jun 28, 2004 10:10 pm

Hi there,

I'm looking for astronomers staying at Choa Chu Kang, Yew Tee or Bt. Panjang area, (I stay near Yew Tee MRT), there are many dark spots and clear sky, so that we could form a North West Zone area astronomer group, anyone interested? I have a C8 and 2 to 3 more telescopes with many extras, my scope is mounted onto a pier with wheels, and I 'm very willing to share my instrument.

Interested party PLs P.M. me, I also owned a MPV to move around.

I shall name the new area astronomer group as NWAAG (North West Area Astronomers' Group), I'm looking for interested parties, young or old, owned or dont own telescope, those who are interested, all are welcome, you all can use my scope for observation.

Is FOC dont need to rent scopes lah!

Hi Mr.Teh,

You are most welcome, u can call me at 94566785. anyway, my surname is Low and my Christian name is Robin, u may address me as Robin or Low.

Invest in a bino as a first step, it cost less than $100 for a 7 x 50mm bino, u can get them at Sungei Road road side store, and for a more serious observation, we can do it together. alternatively, I can also assist u to choose the most suitable instrument as a beginner, and it wont hurt your pocket.

I try to gether say 5 to 6 persons, and we can start our group immediately. If u want to learn more about astronomy, u can also purchase the astronomy magazine "Sky & Telescope" or "
Astronomy" I will appreciate if u could email me at lowrobin@hotmail.com for future contact and communication.

Hi! Mr Low,
When are you going for observation? And where we meet you up for your free transport? As for scope investment still saving dollar by dollar to buy a cheap scope and also got to wait untill i know the sky first.
Thanks you are very friendly
