can i see the ocean patriot ???, page-4

thanking both clarry and yenn for the info...location, location, location.
4 eyes better than none, will be keeping a close eye on your postage.

off topic briefly, yenn stated the use of a telescope and i pressume by your detailed observations clarry that you're also.

in case you guys are unaware, after sundown and weather permitting, point your scopes roughly straight up and focus on the brightest object up there(jupiter and the 4 jovian moons when visible circling on an east/west plane).
the qaulity of view depends on your scopes but a 50mm objective lens operating at around 40 times magnification will suffice...small scopes can't be pushed too far and all things being equal, the bigger the better.
scope focal length divided by the eye piece focal length gives the magnification...eg. 600mm/12mm=50x mag....enjoy.

luck to all peppies, dcob.

holding mmro, mmr and gba.
