Suggestions for 2nd scope
I've got a bit of money to spend on some astronomy gear, and am thinking of getting a second scope to go with my 200mm f5 Newtonian (got plenty of accessories already). I've got $400-500 to play with, and am thinking along the lines of an 80-100mm achromatic refractor; I'm unsure though whether to go short focal length (e.g. ST80) for wide field views and compactness or long focal length (e.g. Skywatcher 102 f9.8). Any suggestions and experiences for a second scope to go with my reflector? Already have a mount so am just going for an OTA.
