Ray, Haven't had a chance to use your

Parfocal ring yet! It was mainly to be aimed at solar work & my collimation ( I van only guess at the cause of the problem!) is not great when shooting the sun ( I've done one successful moon mosaic since). I thought you were expressing a mild interest in the eBay PGR cameras? Sorry my discovery if tthis agent for sending parcels out of the USA is too late for this & sorry my solicitations were misdirected.

Mark,


What on earth has this got to do with AstroIIDC astro-imaging or anything else we may be interested in in this field. If you wish to get banned you're going the right way about it. In my view, and I've been very considerate to you even sending you stuff to Australia at my own expense, you have been a exasperating person on this list and you need to focus on what you want to do, stop spending money on kit until you've mastered what you already have and take peoples advice if you ask for it.


You go off at tangents from one thing to another and start talking about your computers and cabling and the like - this is all BS - the software we use and techniques using it is what counts on this group. If you want a general chit-chat join facebook and find some mates who like to talk about the latest bit of gear they are getting or who to get to deliver it. I used to feel that I wanted to help you as your efforts at planetary and lunar imaging could be improved with a bit of guidance (I'm no genius) but you would go on about some solution involving this gadget or that gadget.


Listening isn't your strong point it seems I just hope that you sell on all that gear to someone who can put it to good use as you don't settle down and focus on anything.


Don't bother to reply to this Mark as I don't want to know.
