EQUIPMENT

- A GSO Newtonian Telescope OTA 200x1000 

- A Newton TS Optics UNC 200x1000 Telescope. Purchased at the end of 2017, this instrument has a mechanical and a focuser of a better quality than the GSO. The carbon tube is lighter and less subject to dilation

- Refractor achromat Skywatcher 80/400

- Refractor apochromat TS Optics 80ED F7 with corrector 0.8x (March 2019)

- Finder 90° angled; great to avoid a stiff neck or lower back pains
  
- Eyepieces: 
     • 32 mm • Omegon Redline SW 70 ° 50.8mm 
        This is the one I use the most. It fully immerses with the sky 
     • 13 mm • Omegon Redline SW 70 ° 50.8mm 
        Also a very comfortable eyepiece. 
     • 8mm Omegon Redline SW 70 ° 50.8mm 
      • 5 mm Omegon Planetary 
      • 12,5 mm Omegon illuminated crosshair reticle  

- Barlow APM 2,7x ED Comacorr

- ADC MK3 atmospheric dispersion corrector 

- Baader MPCC Mark III comma corrector

- Autoguiding: Lacerta MGEN II connected to a 60 mm Altair telescope. No use of computer needed for this device.

The N and NE horizons are quite clear despite the presence of some trees. E and SE are clear. To the South there is an impressive cedar (up to 40º) and trees up to a height of 20-25º. The western horizon is clear but the luminous pollution to the NW of the agglomeration of Toulouse, at 50 km, is important
