Well, i had to get rid of a scope, as i had a 14" RCX as well, so after seeing an advert for a "large scope wanted" i decided 1 needs to go. But i didnt want to get rid of the 22", but i said to myself if i do sell it, i'll get the dream scope i wanted. If i sold the Meade, then i'll spend the money on the 22". Well, after i sold the 22", i really missed it. Optically it was a dream (22" f4.5), goto etc etc. Yes it needed a little TLC and cleaning up, but the images were stunning. Richard (The new owner) put a post of it some time ago, and now he is the loving carer of that monster too.
Anyway, i tried a few times to talk Richard out of it, but it was too late. He knew it was a great scope and didnt budge, so then i decided to put a deposit on the CDK, and 5 months later

.
Now im deciding do i need the 14" RCX, so i think it may be going for sale too.
