Like several, I've thought that one of the Kendrick Observing Tents would be nice to have for Star Parties, etc. However, I've passed because there are so many other things that are higher on my "to buy" list than an observing tent. I might have another solution though.
While browsing at a local discount store (The "W" one that keeps springing up everywhere), I saw a Coleman Riverside 6 man tent that looks like it could EASILY be converted to an observing tent. Simply a matter of cutting out some mosquito netting. The nice thing was, it was only $70.
Thought I'd post this here in case anyone else wants to give it a try.
Clear Skies,
Joe
