Hi Blue Skies,
Thank you for your help. You're right I need to put in the time and effort to learn some stars etc first.
I think I fell for the salesman's blurb ie ....just enter a planet / star etc and the telescope will automatically find it, costs a lot of money but so easy to use.
Definitely not as easy as he made it sound, however I am hoping it will be kind of easy once I set it up / know what I am doing.
Again, thanks for taking the time and effort to reply to my question.
