The refractor will always give sharp images after half an hour or so, up to whatever magnification the atmosphere allows on a given night. Refractors generally stay in collimation unless they get a sharp bump (during shipping or by being dropped for example).
I have a feeling that you would be happier with a refractor.

Yeh I was contemplating on selling my c11 edge hd and cgx mount for a refractor hoping I could find one that would give me the same magnification power, considering I also use a 9mm televue eyepiece.
