I must admit to being impressed with that 30in. monster. In 35 years of AA I have had about 30 different scopes - mainly small to medium ones. I now have a nice collection of scopes - a WO 66ED with little CA - great 'grab and go' on a Mantrotto pan head and tripod, a Stellarvue 80mm Nighthawk on a AZ-3 mount, a Orion ED80 on a EQ3 in Alt- AZ mode, [everyone should have one] a ED100 on a Vixen GP mount - good planetary scope for 4 ins], a GSO 8'' F/4 on a LXD55 Meade Goto and a Meade 8in. LXD-90 GPS - and 35 binoculars ! all the way up to the Oberwerk 25x100IF.And my wife who is a bank manager is not happy with me - but she buys silly tops and shoes so it evens out ! [She will really get grumpy next year when I pick up my WO 132 mm APO ]
