Hi Rod,

Sorry I missed your post. Been out fly fishing at Jindabyne. No fish though, still too warm, and the trout are staying down deep.

I want to get into more of a pure astrophotography setup. The Meade is brilliant for visual, being F/10, and having the Goto function is so handy, especially coming in as a novice, as I did.

Also, as I get older, the weight is heavier than it was a year ago. I'm just glad I didn't go for the 12-inch, as I was going to.

But as with the Mary Rose in your case, the old has to go, to make way for the new.

I estimate that there is about $12-13k of stuff here, if someone was to buy it all new. Easily into 5-figures, anyway.
