That's a very nice peice of machinery, my uncle has one almost identicla to that, have fun MJ!

I agree with D3V - a great piece of kit.

Have you been able to do much with it so far?

Actually I haven't even seen it yet. It arrived in Houston day-before yesterday, and I've been in College Station. I'm going home on the 10th, though, and I'm looking forward to it.

Diggeth!

Just wondering how it's all going - have you been able to use it, etc?

Yea, I got a chance to use it. It was pretty sweet. I enjoyed it. Unfortunately, I am not very good with locating things quite yet, but I'm getting better every time I go home. I went home this weekend, but unfortunately it was too cloudy to see anything. :-\

The finder scope helps!
