I googled "Telescopes" I think, ticking Aus search about a year ago. Joined IIS with one newby post. Been popping back and learning from IIS every now and then and FINALLY ordered my first proper scope two days ago.
Ended up deciding on a 10" Lightbridge Dob and really looking forward to it arriving in a few weeks. You guys (and girls) do a wonderful job on this site, no doubt I will stay with it for a long time to come.
