Hey Rod!

Greetings...
I would be interested in such a publication. How can I joing a
mailing list
for subscription ifo when it comes out?

Also, is the SAC7b still your camera of choice? I really like your
lunar
pics and am seeking a camera. I'd also like to try a little deep sky
work
but mostly I'd like to to get very good, sharp lunar pics. What
would you
recommend I use with my Mk-67?


Hi:

I tried to reply a while ago...but Google ate my post, so if this has
already appeared once, disregard. ;-)

I still like the SAC7 very much. It's been a real workhorse on the
planets. I do use the Meade LPI quite a bit, too, and especially on the
Moon, where its slightly larger chip is nice, as is the camera's small
size and low weight.

If you want to try the deep sky, the SAC is the way to go, though the
Meade DSI is probably better for that as inexpensive cameras go (but
probably not as good on the Moon).

As for the JDSO, initially it will be electronic-only, a downloadable
..pdf file. If things work out, we hope to offer subscriptions and hard
copy issues for modest fees. Maybe. ;-)

I'll make an announcement when the first issue is ready to go.

Thanks for your interest!

Peace,
