Yes, Malcolm, I can but agree with your comment regarding the GSO products. They have allowed me to enter the realm of larger 'scopes.
Congratulations on your purchase, I hope that you have many, many hours of pleasure using the thing. 'Twas interesting to note your comments regarding the eypieces. With a wee bit of luck I'll be in the market for a Barlow in the next week or so (I only have 26mm, 15mm and 9mm eyepieces at the moment). So, what Barlow are you using? I was considering a TeleVue 2x, but the Orion is nearly half the price and price unfortunately is a critical factor for me.
I've been reading the various contributions to this site on the subject and am still confused. If you are keen enough then confuse me further.
As Robbie Burns said so many years ago, "The best laid schemes o’ mice an’ men / Gang aft a-gley". Which means, of course, that my intention to purchase a Barlow will undoubtedly founder on the rocks of fiscal necessity.
