Hi Jean-Pierre....
You definitely have many more years than me enjoying this hobby.....
As for me, I am 50, and no longer my younger days, and in order to work on heavy load of astronomy equipment, such as my C14 and the 8" ISTAR, I continue to keep fit by doing 3 times of jogging per week.....
Hope to hear from you soon, your new ISTAR scope....
Regards
James Ling

Hello James i look forward to my 228mm F/D 9 H-alphas refractor, I specialized for 3 years in the solar imaging in H-alpha wavelenght, I hope that this new instrument will allow me to progress still in this passion regards jp website : jp-brahic.chez-alice.fr/

Hi Jean-Pierre,
Who manufactured your blocking filter? I can not imagine the view through a 228mm H-Alpha telescope! My son has a 50mm double etalon Lunt and it provides very nice images but not in the same category as a 228mm. I can't wait to hear your first report-----Craig
