I see the last issue is the June 2026, no July or August, I do see the the new Special issue on the Seestar S50 Pro.

Any chance we are getting the the last two months as advertised for our subscriptions, as it's almost September in a few more days.

The special issue on Seestar S50 was nice, but not for me personally, as I am trying to avoid being locked in the ZWO enviroment in my own astrophotgraphy purchases. Though I do see the allure and reason others might want to go that route, it's just not for me.

Thanks.

Yes, two back issues are coming soon. If you read the Editor’s Note in the September issue, you may have caught a little of the reason behind the delay. It’s been a bit of a challenge getting everything caught back up, but we’re almost there.

Thank you very much for your patience and for sticking with us. It really is appreciated.

I capture the universe with a collection of about 12 telescopes, including the SCA310, Astro-Physics 155 EDF Starfire, TEC 180FL, and Takahashi Epsilon 160ED, and my beloved FSQ-106EDX4. Paired with advanced imaging systems - including the medium-format ZWO ASI461MM and ASI6200MM Pro with Chroma filters - these precision instruments help me reveal the faint structures, rich colors, and extraordinary detail hidden in the night sky.

Thanks for the update, I seemed to have missed that Editor's Note in the September issue. You've got a great magazine here it's a shame the forum and site are not more active.

Thanks, and yes, I agree. One of the things we want the ScopeTrader forums to be known for is that they’re unbiased, not overloaded with advertising, and not constantly pushing some store, brand, or sales agenda.

We’re planning a series of updates to both the forums and classifieds this month and next. Because the entire platform is our own, we have complete control over the features, functionality, and how everything works.

So if you see something you don’t like, something that could work better, or simply have an idea for a feature you’d like to see, please let me know. We can actually do something about it.
