Hi Arthur,

I’m glad you enjoyed the pics. I have photographed the moon with a telescope and got some wonderful images. To photograph the heavens, you will need a telescope that can track the movement of the sky. If you don’t, you will get some really nice smeared stars! Good luck with it and be sure to post your results

I like the shack photo especially the Warning/Caution sticker on the pole that says do not operate within 10 feet. Hi hi.

73s,
Chris

Arhur, I enjoy APRS too! Using a clunky setup of an Argent Data Systems TNC2, an old PDA and an old radio. It works. Just installed the 4 line display. Enjoy the hobby, 73! and happy APRS.
