Hi Hoopa!!!..and a big welcome to IIS!!!..
Your best bet is to have a good close look at a 10 inch Dob..it might look simple enough..but it takes a lot of engineering to make it work!!..
Try looking up a few classifieds from a local astronomy group or from a reputable telescope dealer!!
Spend a bit of time with a good planisphere, star atlas..plus visit the local library and have a browse through the Astronomy section!!!..
Cheers!
