The inevitable has happened.
Petra (spacezebra) and myself have been bitten by the dreaded
"aperture fever" bug.
Even though my trusty 8inch lx90 serves me very well, and Petra's 12inch
lightbridge gives her many hours of pleasure, unfortunately we find
ourselves wanting more.
Luckily for us we have been blessed with significant other halves
(xstream and Dave the unbeliever) who are willing to help us through
this dilemma.
The four of us are going to pool our resources and enthusiasm and
hopefully at the end of it come out with a magic scope.
After much research, John has come up with what we think will be
the best way to go.
An f4.5, 20 inch, truss dob with servocat and argo navis.
I don't pretend to be technically minded. So if you have any questions
or any advice, please feel free to direct them to John.
Petra and I wanted you to share in our exciting news.
