seems that every new amateur astronomer on a budget goes
on a similar journey. It's a hobby that includes so much
information and so many choices, that it can be frustrating,
confusing and sometimes overwhelming.
It is
my goal to help amateur astronomers get the most for their
money and get the most out of their affordable telescopes,
so I have assembled a collection of video tutorials and
articles on CD-ROM, including:
 |
- 7
"Must-Haves" for Beginners
- Collimating
a Newtonian Telescope
- Drift
Alignment Made Easy
- Focusing
for Astrophotography
- Fine
Focusing for General Observation
- Magnification
Calculator
- Worm
Gear Enhancements
- Solar
Observation
- Refractor
or Reflector: The $800 Question

This CD includes my new SkyView Pro modifications
video.
My online article, SkyView Pro Modifications, has
generated so much feedback and requests for more information,
that on this CD, I've included a video
that shows the process in fine detail. Using closeup
demonstrations, I guide you through each step with much
more expanded explanations than are included in the online
version. You'll see every bolt, every washer, explained.
The easy-to-follow instructions on this CD will give you
the confidence you need to modify your Skyview Pro so that
it operates more like the expensive mounts, and as a result,
improve the quality of your astrophotos. Price: $12.95 in
the Web Store.
PRINT
ARTICLE: I've
gotten many requests for a printable version of the
original SkyView Pro modifications
article, so I have created a PDF version that I will
email to those who are interested. I would love to give
it away, but I'm trying to recover some of the cost of running
and maintaining this website. Price: $2.20 in the Web Store.
