Thanks for the kind words. I've seen that scope Macoltz has at a star party
way back when ... I think at the Reach 11 Park off Tatum (back when it was
dark there). I noticed it because you don't see that many of them around
anymore. DFAC member Jim Conley did an excellent job restoring this one.

great meeting area as well. Will have to take some time to look over some of
the information you have posted. Don Macoltz would love your club "loaner"
scope as he runs all his Messier Marathons in a 6" Dynascope. Look forward
to hearing from you in the discussions..

here (though many of you already know me through PAS). After being a PAS
member since the early 80's, and after too many drives into PVCC from New
River for meetings, I and good friend Roger Serrato decided it was time to
start up a new club here in the north valley. So I let my PAS membership
lapse and decided to have a go at it. We're about 20 members strong, and
need to grow a bit more and increase our visibility, but we're off to a good
start. Our primary motivation was to educate people about light pollution,
something we've already begun to do. Of course, we do the other things too,
like member observing sessions and public outreach. etc. You can visit our
website at www.dfacaz.org to learn more about us.
