If you can see this message then you are using a browser (probably Internet Explorer) which does not support the international web standards used by the LAS website and many others. Click here for an example of how the site should look.
Please consider using an alternative browser - especially if you are on Windows XP which only supports the outdated Internet Explorer 8 browser - such as Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox which do have support for these web standards. As well as not supporting modern features and web standards, old versions of browsers - especially Internet Explorer - can expose your computer to security risks. The Browse Happy website has a list of the latest versions of all major browsers, including Internet Explorer (but remember Windows XP only supports up to IE8!)
If updating/changing your browser is not possible, do not panic - all of the LAS website is still available to you and we are working to make the layout compatible with outdated browsers.
Thanks; will be in touch with Brendan in the near future.
Is the min scope at Cronton? I need to think about the logistics of Cub travel; we have a full pack on two nights!
I am going to compromise on the type of scope purchased having done a little research over the weekend. The Celestron CPC 800 does have GoTo but I will need to configure the alignment using two bright objects, (the Moon is acceptable); hopefully this will put a little bit more skill into the set-up. I can get my Latitude and Longitude positions from Google Earth I think.

Dave
