It could have been worse, he could have brought the mount but not the scope. Good thing Scott had a mount that worked with the eval scope.

I'd say yes by all means bring it. John is very much the "gearhead", and should be able to help you out.

Please bring it - playing with telescopes is a big part of the fun at these things for some of us (certainly it is for me).

We may need a bigger field if we keep getting more CNers to join us.

Add one more to the list! I ran across this thread and looked up the location, I have family nearby, so I am thinking of turning this into a short trip (from Chicago). I haven't posted before (haven't had anything to add) but I often browse the forums. Hope to meet everyone in June!

Welcome to CN Rick, you picked a great place to come out of the shadows. It will be nice to meet you, you'll enjoy the rest of the gang. We pretty much all became one large and ecclectic family in very short order.

John ; thanks , I traded for this scope like over a year ago, it works, really, but I simply cant figure out the hierarchal menu system it uses, I have tried several times. Carol told me you were the man to go to for this . I cant wait to meet you all.
