hi brendan
thanks for the reply.
i live in a flat and have limited physical space. i want a telescope that i can put in a cupboard pretty much set up and bring out when i want....i want something portable and easy...the DOB was a great telescope, just didnt suit me and as a result got used less and less.
something that is a grab and go would suit me better, and hopefully result in being used more often, resulting in being a good telescope for me.
i want to view details on the moon, explore the planets, constellations and develop the interest i have had for a long time.
for me, the money i am thinking of spending is a lot of money and i want to know i am getting the best possible scope for me, something that will be fun to use on what i do know, and will help me discover more sights and develop my interest in this hobby. i want to cruise the skies with my trusty sky maps and put names to things i have just read about...'
i want to primarily have fun....
hope that clarifies things a bit more for you
thanks
janine
