Why would you listen to any other rock station other than planet rock?!

for some reason it will not play for more than 30 mins without freezing on my pc

Thought it was a rock station buts its NASA linked, sounds interesting

 

Hmmm that's different, might look at that then!

Strange, mine froze all the time but that's because the internet is so slow here, so I ended up buying a radio for it!

Third Rock play nearly nothing but rock with the occasional interview with some bod from NASA, it's all I listen to radio wise at home.

If it's on DAB or FM I will check it out, but if it's on the web there is no chance

[Perkil8r]

Only on tinterweb I think.

If you have some unspent book tokens, I know of a writer who is keen for you to spend them on his books. No names, though, as it's advertising.

Hi Rob - it's these: http://www.pulsar-optical.co.uk/prod/skywatcher/eyepieces/ultrawide.html

 

I got the 9mm one's - not tried them yet but they came on recommendation from this thread on SGL:

They look very nice Kim, and a bargain price too.

Is it the William /optics bino you're using ??  Which of your scopes are you bino-viewing with ?

[Brantuk]

Yep it's the WO bino viewers - I use them with the Sct mainly. I did try with the Meg but with limited success - I reckon they will work nicely with the 115 though - and maybe the solar scope if I'm lucky. They won't work with the Tal though cos it's been mod'ed.
