Starhoo Sky Conditions - LET THERE BE NIGHT!
In 2007, I dug a 4 foot deep hole and poured a 12" diameter concrete pier for the mount.
The floor of the observatory, built around the pier.
The QHY16200A replaces a QSI690 that broke. Got it on the mount and working last night.
Built in 2007, the observatory features a garage motor that opens the roof. Some damage to the motor gear requires the roof to be closed manually.
Plan for a "Bird House Obsevatory." Built this around 2000 in Rowley, MA
The completed fully open birdhouse obsevatory.
