First light for my 20 mm TV Plossl tonight, also bought second-hand from this forum. I've been waiting all week for the (extremely unusual) cloudy weather to clear and tonight was my first chance. Seeing wasn't great, there was wind down at scope level and the nearly full moon was well up.
Despite all that there was clearly a big difference in the contrast with either my 25 mm GSO Plossl or my MAS 15 mm ED2. There was less edge of field brightening and the stars looked sharper too. I wouldn't say they were totally sharp edge to edge, but my scope is f5 so until someone sells me a paracorr on the cheap...
Can't wait to try it on a still, clear night with no moon!
