Both for me too. I have decent skies, so use the Telrad to find whatever naked eye object I am after then use the RA finder to star hop to whatever object I am looking for that is below naked eye brightness. You can't do that with a Telrad and star hopping with the RA Finder is a hell of a lot easier than doing it the wrong way round and upside down through the eyepiece.
