I will have this up soon and will let you know here.

Clear skies,

Not a problem Greg. That scope is 270 points/imaging hour & I'm on the 90 point plan. The weather there is spectacular! I hope they can install some smaller, more reasonably priced scopes in the future. 


It looks like new iTelescopes may be coming online at Bathurst The 'Telescopes' dropdown in the Launchpad lists T61, T65 & T67, but those scopes don't appear in the window for Bathurst.

Hello,

I finally got all of the details for T40 today from Dr. Sasse, so it is now uploaded and should download automatically when you start ST4.

Thanks, Greg.
