I would definitely recommend going to a star party to check out the variety of scopes available, and how they work in practice. Each design has its strengths and weaknesses, and one persons strength is another's weakness  |
Agree with Tim here and all.
You need to look through and use some of these scopes to get a feel of what is ''mother's milk'' and what is ''poison'' to you.........and I mean TO you!
Tim and I settled on a 12 inch SCT and from what I have experienced so far, I would not have anything else.
