Still stay with the suggested 8" dob, it has a better focal length at f6 and will really help you get to know the sky. With this scope you will have enough money left over to get the standard accessories, red LED light, planisphere, observing chair, telrad, cheshire eyepiece.
Errr...


Please explain some of these gizmos -
Led light - I know what that is, im not all strange
Chair - Yep. I can grasp that aswell.. wait... yep... yep.
Explain all the other stuff aswell though, that im confused about
All Andrews scopes also come with binoculars and moon filter, so thats pretty cool
I need a light pollution filter aswell - anyone know where I can pick one up new or second hand without wasting too much on it? York Optical were selling it for $149
Cheers,
Crash
P.S - Explain the concept of a "chair" again?
