The Telrad can be used alone or be supplemented with a finder scope.
I use the telrad alone and use the scope with a low power ep to zone in on the desired object. I cant see the point of a finderscope when you do it this way.
The Telrad has 3 targetting rings rather than a single dot to make it easier to starhop.
The rings are 1/2 , 2 and 4 degrees.
I've 2 Telrads 1 new one and 1 about 20yrs old. They are a great tool .
