Re: Hello
Thank you everyone for the warm welcome! I have no clue about my telescope and the mount and other specs. I am hoping to find a club so I can learn more about it. Our first night using it was not very successful. I really have to learn so much more about how to use the telescope. I will get some pictures together so hopefully this forum can help me as well.
