Hi Brian, indeed you have fine equipment.
I don't think you need feel aggrieved here as mostly on IIS theres a little bragging rights of ones hard earned.

Snobbery ..I dont think its intended..bragging yes..it goes on in ALL forums.

I have a friend in wealthy Vaucluse were I go to observe near a clifftop in Summer; Only30 mins from Concord where I mostly live...He has an 80ed and sees no reason to get more expensive gear and hes REALLY WEALTHY..
I know another near Penrith a less affluent area and he has far more expensive gear..Hes Not a Snob..just thats what he wanted ..the best.

I myself who can afford Tak, but put my money elsewhere have gone for a very good solution.. In a TS 130mm Apo triplet..ITS GREAT ..I have no regrets..I've put my money in property etc ..not so much in Astro.

Enjoy what you have its darn good, and good seeing ..its been rare here in Sydney of late.
