SH Quark Chromosphere

Post by AndiesHandyHandies »

Hi,

A second hand Quark Chromosphere came up on a UK Facebook page and I decided to buy it.

It was reviewed in Astronomy Now I was told so is this a good sample?

Cheers. Andrew.

If that's the one that Gary originally owned it's very good.

Lucky you! I have the matching unit. Myself, Gary Palmer and Pete Lawrence used them several years ago when we attempted the 'worlds largest solar image' at the Hertsmonceaux Astronomy Festival.

You have a keeper there! Hold onto it.
