Have to say I was singularly unimpressed by the Questar 7. Nicely made, but the bugger would never thermally stabilise...

As for the price of an AP...it matters not to me....as well looked after I can get what I paid and then some should I ever want to sell it.

Sure for visual use, there are plenty of options. But if you want a fully corrected field with a 16803 sensor, and a focuser than doesn't behave like a lump of play-dough, choices rapidly narrow.

If time/weather permits, I'll see if I can grab some 130GTX + Quad compressor and Taka FSQ106 test images , and put then up on a web page...it should make interesting reading.
