One of the cool uses of the Meade MySky is that it is easy to find Venus in broad daylight. Just follow the arrow on the little screen until it turns to an X inside a circle. Look down the gunsight...bingo. Venus is really quite beautiful when seen in a deep blue Arizona sky. The MySkyPlus is a risky purchase because they often don't work, and if you update the firmware as they instruct, you will have an inoperable unit. Go figure. But when they work, they are a LOT of fun. Paul Knauth -- See message header for info on list archives or unsubscribing, and please send personal replies to the author, not the list.
