Hopefully, I will see some stars tonight as the weather is better today.

I have a 30mm Andrew EP with 80 degree field of view. With the new scope, the 30m EP gives good views of the nearby mountain, but of course the stars may be a different story. It seems well illumanted to the edge, even though the field stop is 41mm.

I would love to obtain a better eyepiece, I just don't know what!
Weight, rather than cost is the limitation, but then again, these wide-angle, low magnification eyepieces tend to be expensive, so I want something that really works well. I will consider any EP from 30mm to 40mm.

Meanwhile, I will test the 30mm when possible, and maybe it is good enough!
