Old Jaegers catalog needed
by Chuck Hards 20 Apr '13

Does anyone have a Jaegers catalog from the mid-seventies lying around? I need to research and identify some products and components from about that timeframe. Scans are perfectly acceptable in either jpeg or pdf. Thought I'd try here before going to CN. Thanks!

Well, some of us showed up

Well some of us actually showed up at Harmons this evening. Turned into an enjoyable bull session about just about everything but astronomy. Alas I found myself outnumbered by those with the views we've come to expect in Utah but it was still fun. Happily SPOC's Clear Sky Clock is looking encouraging for tomorrow so maybe we'll actually get some astronomy done. Clear skies, patrick

by Carroll, Kelly 19 Apr '13

19 Apr '13

Hello all, I would like to personally invite you to visit Great Basin National Park in Baker, NV for its annual Spring Astronomy Night on Saturday May 4, 2013 at 7:30PM (PDT). We have missed interacting with our Utah astronomy friends and would love to see you at the event. As always, we will have hot beverages to drink and cookies to share. If it's cold we'll open the visitor center as a cold room. This star party is advertised to the public, but we like to concentrate in the amateur astronomer community for this one. Please let me know if you have any questions. http://www.nps.gov/grba/planyourvisit/directions.htm http://www.nps.gov/grba/planyourvisit/great-basin-night-sky.htm Best regards and clear skies, Kelly Kelly Carroll Park Ranger Great Basin National Park 775-234-7513 www.nps.gov/grba Experience your America Great Basin National Park Astronomy Festival - September 5-7, 2013<http://www.nps.gov/grba/planyourvisit/greatbasinastronomyfestival.htm>
