Hi Gang:

One of the two major Yahoo ETX groups, ETX Astro (the other being ETX
Owners), is closing down. This is due to the fact that the original
owner of ETX Astro lost interest and could not be persuaded to give
anyone else much in the way of privileges...there's no way to block
spam, etc.

I've always liked ETX Astro, and that being the case, decided to try to
preserve the feel of the group, but with, perhaps, more emphasis on
OBSERVING with the little scopes than on hard-core equipment
discussions (I'm told ETX Owners has that end of things pretty well
covered).

Anyway, if that sounds at least marginally interesting to you, go he
