Learn all about SID Receivers and the people who created them... I presented this at @ the DAYSTAR FILTERS SOLARFEST 2016 week long solar extravaganza in Missourri in August, 2016
Multiple Wavelength Solar Observing/Imaging w/DAYSTAR QUARKS. I presented this at The Catawba Valley Astronomy Club in the summer of 2016, at BOBFEST, the Regional Gathering of Amateur Astronomers, at the Catawba Science Center this spring, 2017 and at Gardner Webb University in Shelby NC in the Fall of 2017. |
