Hi all! Just getting back into astronomy as an adult (did a bit as a kid). I have bought a second hand scope but I can't figure out the model. It is a sky-watcher 114mm in good condition. Can anyone tell me a bit about it?

Hello Lawrie and welcome, can't help you with the scope though. Enjoy your stay.

Could it be this?

It looks similar at least.
Welcome!

Looks like that might be it thanks! Just needed the manual I think I might be able to find it now

I've got one of those. I can copy the book and email it to you somehow if you need one.

Oh wow that would be great! Thank you so much!

Lawrie, I found a link online for the booklet and have emailed it to you. Much quicker.

It's exactly the same as what I have in my kit.
