well Roy, you beat me to it
Sunday at yours looks good, gives me a chance to test out a few things with the 6 incher on the 12" forks. Dont think I can make the burren that night.

anytime after 8pm is fine by me.... give us time to set up and catch the ISS.
Tom don't forget to bring your webcam as you might catch some nice images of Saturn.

I absolutely do agree Tom, some of the best SCT optics Ive seen
and thats not just a hollow platitude, you know that if it was a crock I'd tell you.
For some reason I had 11" in my head.
Looking forward to the next night.
