Re: Spider build and UTA for an 18 inch scope
Weather has been bad everywhere. I have had two clear new moon weekends - May and July when coincidentally, I invited a group friends out for observing nights. Outside of that, there have been perhaps 5-10 other clear or semi clear nights since early May. This winter being a la niña year was slated to be wet. There'll be other years.
cheers
