Hello, This is to test my new subscription to the list and introduce myself. If you are reading this message, then I owe thanks to Tom Polakis and Doug Snyder for their help in subscribing. I'm new to Arizona (but I got here as soon as I could.) I relocated from Virginia last June. I have a home observatory outside of Sierra Vista with a 30-inch Starsplitter Dob and an 18-inch Obsession Dob. Both scopes are equipped with the Stellar Cat dual axis drive system and Argo Navis DTCs. I purchased the 30-inch (along with the house and observatory) from Gary Meyers - the proprietor of Stellar Cat. My 18 is nearly 14 years old, battle scarred, and well traveled. I do visual astronomy and have been observing for 30 years or so. I retired earlier this year and now can devote more time to observing than I ever had before. I look forward to sharing these wonderful Arizona skies with all of you.
