what is frost?

Read on the web about managing frost on the telescope.

It's dew, frozen. Of course!

So, once again, the Kendrick dew heater proves invaluable. This has got to be the most underrated accessory for amateur astronomers.

I recently purchased an additional, smaller dew heater (from Kendrick). So now I have the big one for the front of the SCT 'scope; and the small one for the eyepiece. The small one will also fit my camera lenses.
