Hey Brad, I'm planning on Thursday or maybe Wednesday night arrival (if I get out of the office soon enough). The same spot works for me. But it really doesn't...
Brad, I didn't see your post until Reagan replied. Nick and I are going up Sunday, so we should have the same general area staked out. I'm looking forward to...
Great Jim, I thought you were going up later in the week. I'll be getting into Amarillo Sunday afternoon, and will go back to Dumas and pickup the motor home....
Hi all, I will be going up Saturday,the 20th, will be meeting several of my imaging buddies. We went up a day early last year also. Hope to see everyone...
Hi Darrell, I don't see an answer to your question about early arrival on the Okie-Tex messaging board. If you're camping, I'm sure you'll find somewhere to ...
Warren, Are you going to Okie-Tex? My IR filter will be waiting for me at the motel in Dumas as I head north, so I plan to try some imaging at the star party....

Jim, Would you mind bringing the 5x powermate to Okie-Tex? I'd like to try it. My arrival date isn't firm yet. Santa Fe trip delayed, but I may need to stay...

Joel, That's pretty good. My first shot of Saturn with a web cam was the same color! The photo showes a lot of detail and there is likely more in there,...
Hi Jim, Its 1190 images stacked. I only did a quick processing, and didn't have time to mess with the image much. Hopefully I'll have more time this...
Hi all, Anyone up for a pre Okie-tex test drive tonight at Claude? Let me know if anyone is interested, otherwise I'll be attending a football game tonight.....
Joel, No advise to give. Your latest Mars shot is really sharp and so is your Saturn shot. I am anxious to see how you got such sharp edges on Mars. Terry ...
