Thanks. I live in a very remote part of Arizona with very dark skies.
The time has come for me to build an observatory to house the Meade so I don't have to move it outside and back inside every time I want to use it.
The telescope has an onboard computer so it is fairly easy to find objects once the telescope is properly oriented. Having a permanent installation will save a lot of time in orienting the scope.
Fan Mountain is not far from where I grew up in the Shenandoah Valley. It is a nice observatory. I was there long ago but understand they have done a lot of upgrades over the years.
