I've done a couple of broadcasts, and I have SO much more to learn about my MCHP... I usually only want to answer newb questions when I know I have the answer right... last thing you want to do is steer someone off into the weeds! The other point to make is, that those of us with these devices are spending so much TIME on playing with them, using them, or, in my case, fretting over, and actually ordering more of "the right stuff" to maximize their use. I for one, haven't even been on the channels, or this forum that much, in the last week or so, because all the time I had available was researching how to get my new CGE mount setup for the new 8" f4.0 Schmidt-Newt I'm GOING to be using for my Mallincam... If you REALLY want to feel better about this part of the CN community, join in the real time viewing and chat some night... clear enough skies -------------------- Dave Ustream YLive XT10i, RTP, CGE, R200CF, TMB80SS 31T5, 22T4, 13Ethos, 8Ethos, TV 3-6 Zoom; Paracorr MallincamColorHyperPlus,SBIG STV&237A;CanonRebel Xti WilderSkiesObservatory(BYO #90) Post Extras:       Chris Schroeder Postmaster Reged: 12/11/04 Posts: 5098 Loc: N.E.
