Re: improvisation
Well, it was terribly windy and luckily, the scope is small enough to be set just underneath the wondow.
I had to change the set so that I could still see through an eyepiece (without the help of the viewfinder). The moon being very low, I could open the window and not have it interfere with the sighting. Earlier, when the Moon was still too high, the other room's window (much better quality than the attic's) could help with the observation.
It's certainly not the best way to perform astronomy.
