If you are a complete new comer to the hobby, I highly recommend a decent pair of binoculars, no larger than 80mm and a set of good atlases.

Getting a handly on the large scale structure of the night sky is very important before diving into hunting a quasar. Binos are multi-use, easy to get around with and offer a VERY pleasant way of exploring the sky.
