Hi
well i think i am ready to take the plunge...i know largely from this forum, that the advise for a first scope would be a 6 or 8 inch DOB. i live in Brisbane and can get a TASCO 6 or 8 at a good price...has anyone experience of these???
also, while i would love a DOB, the size puts me off...i would prefer something compact, easy to assemble, and of course great value for $$
i have seen a Celesteron EXPLORASCOPE 100mm and like the size and cost...again, has anyone any experience of this??
i should say that my hesitation with the DOBs is that with my job i can be transferred regularly...the DOB would be a more permanent scope, not easy to pack up and move...
any advise would be greatly appreciated.
thanks
newbee
