are you still using the zoom eyepiece on the spotter? you may benefit from getting some good eyepieces first before upgrading your scope [the regal gets good reviews on birdforum] & waxing gibbous [member here]has both the 80 & 100mm spotters -check our his review on cloudy nights

a 32mm plossl may help you find objects without a finder -or simply make a small open sight[like on a slug gun] for the end of the barrel

if you can get to an astro club -try the 5mm ep & see what planet views are like
