Hi.
I remember the old Tasco 2". Quite primative by modern standards. A friend had one that they said they had never been able to see anything clearly in it.

She gave it to me to check out and I found the simple doublet object lens had been assembled incorrectly. I soon fixed this and the scope could now be focused.

At a school astronomy night it was then used to great advantage to look at the moon and jupiter.
