I shouldn't complain. Spending money is what she and most other females are good at. I keep her out of shops at all costs. I have to play the part of Scrooge.
While I'm gathering information, what's your opinion on filters for general deep sky use? The UHC seems to be favoured. I may pick up one and possibly one good eyepiece, when I can ... but not until I have had a chance to look through a couple of the better Televue EP's. Tried a filter at Glen's the other night and it certainly increased contrast in the gaseous nebs. My problem here is general skyglow from typical suburban street lights. The ancient "deep sky filter" I got from Astro Optical years ago reduces starlight too much. Never liked it.
