[AZ-Observing] Re: Different Astronomy

Hi Dean,
I have the LHIRES III. The one Olivier had set up at the SAS booth was 
just for solar spectra, more for educational purposes I believe. I was 
there when you were taking the spectra with your DSLR. I think he had 
the LHIRES III on the table but it was not set up. My telescope is the 
Meade 16" LX200R, I use an ST-8XME, and use the free software developed 
by Valerie Desnoux in France, VSPEC, and another free French software IRIS.
