Well Eddy I dont usually talk to fellas with beards but you sound like a reasonable chap so I welcome you to this most wonderful place.
Dont under etimate what that old scope can do...must of the Southern Sky was charted with a man using a half inch refractor.. state of the art back then.
Newton started the reflector revolution with one inch.
What a great man he was we owe him so much.
These days any scope with a Japan sticker on it costs the price of a good car.
One must except that no matter what size scope you have you will want the next one up... so the message is simple..enjoy what you have.
I have also borrowed the EP from a microscope so I feel we at least have that in common.
best wishes
alex
