Mmmmm.... Well, I have a PST and I enjoy it, but I can imagine it might be considered an ex-y luxury item for a lot of people. Watching dynamic solar flares is certainly more interesting that watching static sun spots, but it still isn't quite super-8 racing cars.
I started with a standard solar filter for my ETX (which I have adapted for my Megrez using some plumbing parts). It is a lot cheaper, but if there aren't any sun spots then all you get is a white disk, which is dull. I think the cheapest option is making one with Baader solar film. Mylar? (Is there a how to somewhere here?)
Anyway, welcome to the site.
Cheers,
Brian.
