South pole shows strong shadow detail not often seen at full moon. Rick -- Correct domain name is arvig and it is net not com. Prefix is correct. Third character is a zero rather than a capital "Oh". |

The AP 6 may convert me into a 'refractor guy' for lunar and solar observing. I've not had the chance to put the Denk binoviewer on it yet, but I'm looking forward to doing so. It's also been years since I put the Daystar filter on this scope. Now that it is permanently mounted we should be able to use it more often for h-alpha solar. George N |
