AW: [APML] R200SS first light and new website ...

[Andreas Rörig <apml@andreasroerig.de>]

Hi Philippe,

very nice images. The R200SS ist a great instrument.
Manually guiding at -10C - wow that's brave.

Dew on the corrector and/or the secondary is sometimes a problem with
the R200SS. That's because the secondary and the focuser are very close
to the front end of the tube. A dewshield will probably help.

Best regards
Andreas
