Just got bacj from the South Jersey Star party where I had my AP 160EDF. it has not ceased to amaze me how awsome this scope is on deep sky objects. It is a...
Dear Roland, In my frustrating quest to develop intuition for how optics work, I have become hung up on calculating magnifications for my Baader Mk V using...
It's not puzzling at all, really. 90% of what we amateurs tend to view is accessible to a 4-inch aperture. You have to remember, that to get an aperture leap...
I am using a Barcon with my AP130EDFS and ST10XME. I am self guiding with this configuration. As the guiding chip is offset from the imaging chip there is a...

Thanks for your thoughts Greg, makes much sense. On Saturay, when the seeing was very good, I took a look at M42 with a 13mm Nagler in the 160EDF for 92X....
Marj, Regarding AP piers, I can think of one extremely handy adapter that is worth your consideration, I like to see a 10" or 12" height extension adapter tube...
Just to let the group know, Roland answered my questions privately, probably to save me embarrassment. :-) In addition to making great scopes he has a real...
I'm about to order my first pair of eyepieces for my Baader Mark V binoviewer. I will go for focal length about 20 mm, and believe that the final choise is...

Hi All, I just uploaded three views of the Veil complex which I took last night with the 160 EDF, the 4 inch F5.7 TCC using an STL11000 and 10nm H-alpha filter...
Niels, Go with the plossls. I tried the Radians and wasted a pile of money! Don't get me wrong, I've got a full set of Radians and use them often, but when...

Niels, I have found the 25mm A-25 ZAO's to be my favorite, most comfortable and enjoyable eyepieces to use in the AP/Baader BV. The 16mm ZAO were also very...
Hi Roland: I removed all the older equipment files so there is more room. However, there are a lot of astrophotos, many of which are yours. Perhaps you and...
