So, today, took the mount covers off, removed the should that stops the power connector going in far enough, checked the velcro strap I had made earlier to help it stay in place and hopefully we are back in business.
Weather is great ( clear) but warm (turbulence?).
Anyway, given the bright moon, lack of true night and my increasing frustration, I have decided to stick with globular clusters and open star clusters until night return in Mid July.
So, targets for tonight will be clusters in Cygnus ( about the darkest part of the sky for me).
How exciting!!
Note to self - dont bother till after 11 pm and BALANCE THE SCOPE!!!!!!!!
