I couldn't afford a goto scope in large enough aperature... but I sure would recommend using a magnet when searching for needles in a haystack if you have one. Anyway, some of my fondest memories of observing with EVAC are of being set up on a beautiful night next to the likes of Tom or Silvio, Don or Pierre, or someone else willing to share, and having them locate some interesting objects and explaining them to others, and helping us "grab a telrad fix" and find them and enjoy them as well! Thank you guys so much! StanF -- See message header for info on list archives or unsubscribing, and please send personal replies to the author, not the list.
