Thanks for all your responses. There certainly is a mixture of opinions. I think the try before you buy is probably the best option - for a start anyway. I'll be going to an ASV meeting on Friday night (unless I'm frazzled by the forecast heat) and see what I can discover/find. Unfortunately, Mornington Pen. is a bit far for me.
Incidentally, Mt. Waverley isn't too bad. I have been able to view the Tarantula neb. from here amongst quite a few Messiers all within the last month - albeit before the bushfires spread their ugliness over the countryside and into the skies.
Thanks all,
Robert
