    Since this forum opened there has not been one clear night where I live. It's getting on for 7 weeks now. Crazy the amount of equipment I have around gathering dust.

    I feel your pain! It's been 6 weeks since I got anything done.
    There might be a window on Friday night though - there's always hope.

    It's like what happens when you get a new telescope. I remember waiting over three weeks for first light the last time I got a new toy:pac: and even then it was fleeting.

    Any half decent night has been windy. :(
    It's galaxy season soon though, hopefully a few nights will be had.
    Markarians Chain is on the list. :)
