Hey guys!! Thank you for the great advice, it has been noted!

Yes - I think I will need to experiment and learn to use the scope well with the 2x plossl EP's (that came with the scope) - before I know what I really like. I looked up the Baader Hyerion and see that they have a great reviews with FOV 68 deg, and good eye relief. Im sure this would happen – but all in good time.

Davin - where would you suggest getting these EP from for $120 ish? The places I looked up on were all around the $200 mark.

The 6 week astronomy short course is the sort of thing I'm looking for. I only want a beginners introduction – so I can understand things without appearing silly - but wish it was somewhere local to actually attend. Will keep on the look out as suggested! If all else fails, then an online course it is..

Cheers
Grant
