Welcome to our forum Robbie, We will be happy to help you out, after all that's partly what it is all about A few members in the club has owned the scope you are using so no doubt someone will be able to help you out.

Hi Robbie, and welcome to the forum. One of our members, Ronny, and a couple of others, are trying to get a group going up your way. Here's a link to their website www.nwastronomy.co.uk/But Ronny is also a member of our group, and we're hoping to see him either this weekend or next. Maybe we'll get a chance to meet up with you as well. As Simon mentioned, there are a couple of our people using that scope. So just ask any questions you wish, and we'll try and help you out.

Hi Robbie. With the weather being so bad this past while there have been little or no observing sessions. Also the short nights don't lend themselves to it either but as August is approaching I hope to get out observing. I'm willing to go anywhere and was looking at the quarry on the Limavady mountain as a possible site. Keep in touch and we will get together soon.

Greetings here from Omagh (Seskinore). Let us (me and 2 of my cubs) know when you hope to get together. There is a great viewing point at Braggan (ROI) which is just across the border at Clogher. Any good viewing sites up there in Londonderry?

Welcome to the forum hyper (and cubs). We go down to Bragan as often as possible. Next target date is the weekend of 19th-20th August. Keep an eye on the forum for more details.
