Thanks 1Ponders, it does have a dust cover with one removeable cap. I'll try it out.
Iceman - Thank you! It's a 5" reflector on an EQ2 mount. I understand that this scope is of questionable quality, but atleast my foot is in the door. I've been warned about the 4mm eyepiece and hardly use it at all. Collmination has been checked and seems fine. I normally set the scope up as the sun disappears and I check Joops regularly until about 12am-ish. I mainly see it after Zenith and just before it disappears behind some hills. I'll look into getting a 10mm with 2x Barlow. At the moment I'm a budget hobbyist until funding improves, then the real fun starts.
Thanks heaps!
