nFA observing report 27 Sept 2021

[John Baars]

Thanks for your nice report and experiences with the Alto Astro fiter.
Congratulations on the VROD!

Thirty years ago I stopped a series of burglaries in the neighborhood, I sat quietly outside, heard them, they didn't see me and I called the police. Caught in the act. When the neighborhood heard that that crazy "astrologer" had called the police, I never had a problem again. An argument that you can put right at the feet of the neighbor. You are not a creep but a guard!

Thanks in turn. I would use that argument if my neighbor would deign to speak.

Hello nFA. A superb observing report and an informative review of the Altair Astro 1.25” Tri-Band OSC Filter, so I will have to look into this filter now. Thanks for putting this report up on here for us nFA and congratulations on receiving the TSS VROD Award today.

Thanks Makuser. I really like the filter. If the weather holds out I hope to try the quad band version tonight.

Many still don't know the difference between astrology and astronomy, I'm afraid.
To them we are "astrologers" and may also have contact with

Nice report, nFA, thanks for sharing, and congrats on the VROD.

I am having a very hard time wrapping my head around why the neighbor care so much about what you do in your own yard, literally not bothering anyone. Geez.

Me too. But I think it’s another indication of how much trouble the US is getting into. There’s an element of the populace that has a very expansive and absolutist understanding of “rights”. They aren’t content with exercising their own, they feel slighted unless they can impose their will on others not of their tribe.
