When funds eventually permit(probably early next year), I will be looking at a 10 inch or even a 12 inch Meade SCT for planetary viewing.
May also try some planetary video work with a small and light d.i.y. ccd cam., but will have to see what happens in that department.
Hey Shane,................you know some very rich people out there, ................they make me sick!!!
