What do you folks recommend to cover my 10" LX50 when set up outside to =
keep dust and dew off and cool during the day at hotter observing sites? =
I just use a white plastic laundry bag but I've seen some reflective =
covers like the camping ground cover I have that are larger and look =
like they would cover better and keep the OTA cooler in the day and =
warmer at night. Someone once recommended something called a "Desert =
Storm Shield" or similar title but I could never find a vendor.
