Hmmm, who was the muddle headed wombat who suggested a get-together after receiving astro pressies??? I will be OK for Saturday if this cloudy rainy stuff clears. In Brisbane Sunday. Last night I had a great tour of planetaries, using the 7mm to find the targets and the new 5mm for a close look. Filter works wonders on PN's but pretty savage on starlight - only to be expected though. Cheers from the astro-jinx!!!!

Date: Thu, 27 Jan 2011 13:26:39 +1100 I should be good for this weekend weather permitting too. Great pressies there Paul, You’ll love astronomic OIII filter I use mine on bothmy 1.25” and 2” EP’s. My 1.25”adaptor on my feather touch takes 2” filters andare deep enough the EP’s don’t slam into the filter.

H all, I should be OK for the weekend, weather permitting. I just received the birthday present from all the girlsfor my 60th (on Jan 7). A Televue T6 5mm EP,an Astronomik O-III 2" and 3 adaptersto take the 3 T6 Naglers up to 2" size. I wish I had the 5mm and O-III last night when Iwas going through a list of nice PN's. Greatconditions, even if the transparency wasn'tthe best. Cheers, Paul.
