You input though made it very relieving especially after buying a dud.
Never mentioned my previous scope purchace SEBEN 1000/114 - 4" short tube with EQ2 mount - EBay #^&@. Should have got advice before-hand.

hey i did the same thing i went to buy a 12'' meade but when i went to btow they only sold sw so i got a 12'' sw collapsible and i have to back up the sw here it is so easy to set up just take it out side colloimate(you do with most newts) it and your done that simple it even comes with an aperture mask and about a light shroud most people only use there scope for dso so they almost always observe when you dont need a light thingy magigy
get a sw only because its my best friend a bf stand up for each other dont they what ever you get its a telescope and thats all that matter just dont drop a scew driver on the primary mirror like i did good luck hope you get the right scope for you
