Tks Doug,
Its actually my 4th scope. I started out with a 60mm cheap refractor like alot of us about 15ys ago. Got out of the hobby for a while but then got an 8inch newt and a 5 inch mak for camping 3-4 yrs ago and now a really serious machine, and I must say it really makes coming home from work today very exciting seeing this thing taking up half the loungeroom. I can see myself getting alot of satisfaction for a long time with this beauty.I still have all my other scopes and I think my wife is getting to the edge but I have the kids for back up,Pity about the bloody clouds in Brisbane at the moment.

I probally have recked it for everyone now on the eastern seaboard. I might disappear for a while.
Matt.
