My comments were based on the OPs location, Townsville. Coastal tropic locations are not known for great seeing. I owned a very nice 16" dob for several years and it was at its best at a inland dark site location. I might add that the age of your eyes is a big factor in what you can get out of premium mirrors. According to my eye specialist, everyone's eyes lose clarity as they age, some get cataracts but most others have a subtle decrease in clarity and yellowing of the cornea that happens so slowly people don't know its happening. Year on year deteriouration affects most of us. Some of us migrate to imaging as visual acuity lessens.
