I'm happy to hear the positive comments on using the plossl. I'd set myself to get 2 or 3 Explore Scientific or perhaps a Panoptic if I got a good second hand one, but I've been using the GSO plossls that came with my 10" dob and I've been pleasantly surprised. I especially enjoyed the 25mm plossl. It's made me reconsider. I'm now thinking of getting the TV 11mm plossl (planetary/moon - with 2x barlow), and perhaps the TV 20mm plossl.
I'd be keen to hear anyone's thoughts on a TV 11mm barlowed v an ortho 6mm for planet/lunar viewing. My scope is undriven.
Cheers.
