I'd bet you never thought you'd see a keyboard in the observing equipment forum. :lol:
This keyboard has red illumination and works well at the scope.

I've been looking for one of these for a long time now.
It might prove useful for you.

Just what I'm looking for, for the observatory! I couldn't tell from the Maplin site if it was wireless or not - any ideas?

Its USB wired, maybe you can get a wireless USB adapter or something ?

To do that the keyboard would need a power supply. That means having it plugged into a powered wireless unit. No point.

Unless it could run off batteries, but that would bring its own grief.
