Hi, thanks for the replies.
His name was Chris Ellis, if memory serves. He sells telescopes. However it's not his fault I didn't get a mount, it didn't come with one. He was quite helpful and even used a device with a laser to calibrate it for me.
I just didn't realise how unwieldy the thing would be.
I live in Ivanhoe in Melbourne.
I'll measure the telescope precisely as soon as I get home (it is about 10-12 inches diameter), I just wanted to post to say thanks very much for the replies.
I am definately
not trolling, I am however a noob.
Thanks again, more info coming asap.
