Guest rockdemon Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 Hi all, thanks for the warm welcome I'd be interested in trying the darksite at Wymeswold - when do you meet up there? Hopefully i'd get some useful experience of finding things! (At the moment i've left the motor drive unconnected and have just been manually trying to find things in the scope!)
