Well firstly I really need to say THANK YOU SO MUCH for all you kind words and help. You are so nice and that means the world to me entire.
Well yes I can see the moon from my balcony and I am not sure of what else. When I use my toy binoculars I can see very faint stars too....and yes I want a MC which is easier to transport around so a DOB is out of the question. For me that would be like a wheelchair for stubbing my toe on a bedpost!
No I am immune from bugs...I meant what I said...just a few swipes....more an excuse to play with my camera, amuse myself and impress my friends who know less than me.
For me right now I have the interest and I am willing to make a small investment into a telescope for beginners. I do not want a "toy", I want something reasonable to learn from in about the price range of a Celestron 130 EQ(or about 350 Dollars Australian). It is not an easy task buying a telescope in China. There are no special shops here and mostly finding is over the net. I can't read Chinese!!! I can only speak it now. This topic is above my level. I am learning new words in English here...I have no clue how to say "equatorial mount" in Chinese....
